I have a STacy, and believe me it's nice, but it ain't that great. Mac
laptop? a bit of a pain in the ass with the cartridge and the GCR floppy
wire hangin' off the sides. But this thing from CeBIT. I waannnnttttt
it. I want it now. THIS is what the Stacy shoulda been. But from the
decription it seem as if a few things may be lacking. External monitor
support for one. So how do I do colour? Also, RF. What about cartidges?
Would they have to be redesigned to be direct slot cards? That would not
be so bad. Think, GCR as PDS card, faster, no need for goofy
bankswitching to get more than 128k, and internal! Greyscale? will there
finally be a hi-res greyscale, ore does grey-tone only man that the LCD
will be grey, not blue? Why no floppy? other ntebooks got 'em? A
back-light is a necessity. The STacy is unusable without it!
	All this aside, this baby sound great. If they allow it to access the
full 4096 colours of the STe, then they can give the STacy a sex change
operation, and call the new machine the STacey. WOW.
