It is a double sided, double density drive which operates at 3 times the speed of the 1050 drive. Its new DOS is called ADOS, which is being finalized by OSS, and features a heirarchial file structure (like the ST and MSDOS). Pricing should be very close to the current 1050 price. Availibility was not yet announced, but is expected before the end of the year. -- -Marc L.

Has anyone made any progress in that respect? I would like to see a vt100 emulator that supported file Xfers and an auto-dial fone # list. It would be real nice if the software could be made faster, it seems to take forever to print anything (300 baud). Could this be due to the 80-column screen handler. I have OmniView, could the VT10SQR screen handler be removed and replaced with a routine that would take advantage of OmniView? Also: ---> Neil Harris: Is or will Atari support or allow the production of a VT240 emulator for the ST? Why is Atari against the 8-bit emulator? Unless Atari just doesn't want competition for its' own emulator (which may or may not exist) why would it oppose an emulator? I consider emulation a main selling point for the ST. If I can't use my current software then
