Interesting!  If Atari now doesn't announce products until they're ready
for shipping, and Derek has just let slip something about a Mega STE,
then the Mega STE must be ready for shipping, right?

I WANT IT YESTERDAY!   :-)  (Sorry Allan - couldn't resist that.)

In fact, I probably don't want it, as it probably costs lots more than
my plain ol' STE.  I can probably even do without the new desktop if
NeoDesk 3 is as good as it sounds.  But maybe other people would like
the option of fitting the new ROMs into their existing STEs.  I might
even like to do this myself, as I have the oldest (July 89) version of
TOS 1.6.  In fact, thinking about it..

I WANT TT ROMS RETROFITTED TO MY STE YESTERDAY!!

Oh dear, you've opened a can of worms there, Derek.  We're never
satisfied, are we?  (Sometimes with good reason, though.)

Now, about this sixty-four/sixty-four machine someone mentioned...

:-)

Cheers,

Graham
