Into The Vertical Blank: Generation Atari
S3:E19 Interview with Thomas Cherryhomes. How Fujinet and Irata-Online Give Plato New Life
Fujinet is an exciting new creation for Atari 8bit computers that, among other things, allows them to connect up to the internet and load disk images straight off of FTP sites. It is the brainchild of the genius Thomas Cherryhomes who would like to have this type of device built for all home computers.
Thomas started out by building IrataOnline, a version of the Plato Learning system and drivers for every popular computer system. He then built the ultimate SIO device for Atari 8bit home computer to allow them to go on the internet, explore IrataOnline and much much more.
