I read an article in _The New York Times Today_, which confirmed my
suspicions that either Commodore or Atari will die after January or so.
Atari definitely appears to have the edge- a "cheaper," "faster," machine
with "better graphics" - or so they'd have us think.

But I saw lines like this in the "side - by - side comparison" charts in
some publications:

		ATARI 520 ST ................    COMMODORE AMIGA

	Colors:    512 			  	    (Yes)
       Resolution
  (non-interlaced) mono: 640x400	           640x200

Come on. That's plain misleading advertising.

Definitely going to be a lot of mudslinging this Christmas around Silicon
Valley and Pennsylvania..  (:-)
