Exxos is mentioned in print

Post by rubber_jonnie »

I finished reading Jamie Lendino's book "Faster Than Light: The Atari ST and the 16-Bit Revolution" last night. It was an interesting read, but IMHO not as good as his 8 bit book.

But, one item of note is that in the section about modding at the end of the book, where exxos' store gets a mention :)

Nice to see it in print, though when I tapped on the link in the book, oddly it didn't work.....

Maybe it will in the digital version ;)

It was a nice read whilst on holiday over the last week to get my Atari fix.

You are mentioned in Chapter 12 - Mods for memory upgrades and boosters and then again in Chapter 14 - Community under stores for the Exxos store
