Monitors
Using
only Atari hardware urges you to use two different
monitors to get the best out of your STE.
For
highres office and midi stuff you should use the
SM124 or SM144 in 640x400 at 72hz. Back in time
this was one of the best systems to work with (especially
very eye friendly).
For
your entertainment and for colourful graphics stuff
you should use a SC1224, better a SC1435 for its
stereo support to get all the nice sound qualitity
your STE can provide.
I
would recommend a switch to change the monitors
easily without exchanging them all the time if you
like work with all STE resolutions.
The
Power Pad
The
Power Pad was especially made for the use with the
STE and Falcon computers. Its design is the same
as the one of the JagPad but for one difference:
the colour of the case is grey and the buttons are
blue. By the way : there is no problem linking a
normal JagPad to the STE or the Falcon to play a
game. The bigger problem is to find a game you can
play with it on one of the computers. Only very
few games support the Power Pad.
