Last year, some ATARI official told us: No burst mode on the TT. This year, they say: Burst mode in fast RAM. At least, _some_ good news about the TT. I hate the A500 and A2000, but I think I will prefer the A3000 rather than the TT as I've seen it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Claus Brod, Am Felsenkeller 2, Things.
