Atari 65XE Owner's Manual page 31

PROGRAM RECORDER
The program recorder is an inexpensive storage device. Like a disk
drive, it lets you save programs and other information. Although not as
efficient as a disk drive for business and professional use, it does pro-
vide access to a library of ready-to-use educational and entertainment
programs.
PRINTER
As an ATARI Computer owner, you have a variety of printers to choose
from. To print out everyday reports and letters and your programs, you
can use an inexpensive dot-matrix printer. For printing high-quality
business letters, a letter-quality printer might be better. And for printing
your graphics, a variety of color and graphics printers will work with
your ATARI 65XE.
MODEM
A modem, your computer, and a telephone line will give you access to
a wide world of electronic communications. If you and a friend have
modems connected to your computers, you can send letters to each
other. And if you are connected to some of the many data base and
information services that are available, you can take advantage of
users groups, electronic mail services, news services, and reference
materials.
JOYSTICK
Joysticks are popular tools for entertainment and educational pro-
grams. Using a joystick, you can control your computer without
touching the keyboard.
