Allan,

Could you please go over the hardware specs of the new TT for all of us
uninformed?  Is the TT's cpu a 68030-33 running at 32Mhz?  What speed is
the memory system running at (16Mhz or 32Mhz)?  What about the video
improvements of the TT - could you tell us about the resolutions and
palette?  What is the different configurations and prices for the US of
the TT?  Thanks for any information you can come up with!

Scott Hood
