To: A buddy of mine called up Atari on an unrelated thing, and asked whoever he was talking to what the status of the Blitter was. What a surprise... According to this 'source', 520 (that's all he asked about) owners will be able to buy an upgrade that has: A) Blitter (with new ROM) B) 1 meg upgrade C) Nicad internal clock The price she said? $150. If this is true, this is the thing that Atari needs to get some of us crabs off their backs. My check will be in the mail 20 minutes after I hear that 'its time to send in for it.' If anyone at Atari has comments, I'd sure like to hear them... dale
