I just created an account here, though I've been around the Atari world for a while (since you ask, I got my first 1040ST back when Atari were actually producing new stuff). I'm mostly a software guy - you may have come across ExtenDOS or CD Writer Suite. These days I mostly work on EmuTOS which is an open-source TOS-compatible operating system that can be burnt into a ROM or loaded as a program.

Re: Hi from Canada
Welcome aboard! Always good to have more active developers involved.
Used Extendos quite a bit in the past & found it to be a great help.
Seeing some other threads on here about EmuTos makes me keen to give it a try (especially the program version initially).

I brought Diamond Edge back in the day
