Thanks for this info.  I was agonizing over  whether to buy an Atari or Amiga.
I loved the old  Atari color monitors, but the built-in sound is also the pits.
The Amiga has reasonable sound and other interesting features, but the display
was not as good as the Atari.  (The price difference was not an overriding
concern.)  Now Atari has solved my problem.  I can my cake and eat it too!

Bye, bye Atari. Buy, buy Amiga.
