Hey Shazbot...
I noticed that your ST didn't have a mouse. You will need a mouse. Atari mice aren't cheap. If you have any PS/2 Mice, you can buy this kit, build it up, and "Bob's your uncle."

I just bought two, because I need one for my Mega ST, and one for my Amiga 500.
I've been abusing my Credit Card, because I also bought a set of "Rainbow TOS" ROMs on eBay. they cost $35 shipped, but by the time I bought EPROMS and could get to program them, this was just a little more expensive, and it's done.
Rainbow TOS fixes some bugs, and makes the ST disk format compatible with MS-DOS (the old format was close, but a bit different) and speeds up the system a tad.
You can also use EMUTOS which can load into RAM, but you need a 1mb or better machine.
