I agree with the software issue, but only in part...
I have a bad habit of not being arsed to look for stuff, so I ask first quite often.
This isnt truly being idle, because I simply dont have time to go wading through things ( Hence why I can only use the net for a few minutes at weird times of the day - Its 4:30 AM right now! )
Anyway, have a look around Atari.org for links... Under those links you will get links to links to links...etc...etc...
As far as I can tell, it is possible, to get to every Atari page on the WEB through Atari.Org in one way or another...or at least every one I have come across anyway, and there is almost 900 or so according to Atari.org, but I have only actually gone through around 100-150 I recon.
Also, all good software, be it ST/STE and often even just Falcon, will run quite happily most of the time providing its a GEM Program, and it does not use any machine specific hardware.
Try an have a look through the elysium pages, it has plenty to start on.
Whats the address now I know its changed!
try WWW.USERS.ZETNET.CO.UK/ASEABROOK/
or if that does not work, then elysium.com I think was the original link, however, unless someone corrects me, you can easily enter ELYSIUM and ATARI in a search engine, and that should work!
I forgot it myself, and I think I used Yahoo, and it was the top one!
Anyway, as I said, all good software should be ok actually, as long as it is written more or less properly, and does not use naughty code, so its all a matter of suck it and see really!
A lot of stuff that people with TT's have sent me does not work on mine, but does on theirs, and some ST stuff which does not work on TT's works on mine? - Its something I really want to look into properly actually, because I recon there may be some link that will enable ALL ST software to run on the TT
Anyway, sod all of this, what kind of software are you after in particular?
Or, are you like me, you just want loads of it, just to piss PC owners off, by having several hundred programs installed without it slowing to a crawl ( HAHAHA! )
