They are not selling an ECS machine/chipset. Presumably, when the ECS has been
cast in concrete, the specs will be made available to those who need it, as has
been done with everything else. I don't know how long you've been messing with
the Amiga, but any of those who have ben around since the beginning will tell
you that the last thing we need is yet another Zorro spec debacle.
