Foo.  Shouldn't they also wait for the 50MHz 68030?  You can't
engineer for the future and get the thing to market.  People need
solutions *now*, so they should provide them *rsn*.

Besides, it looks very likely that no HDTV will be OK'd by the
FCC unless it's backwards compatible with existing NTSC ... that
is of course unless they pull another VCR or 4-channel hifi audio
scam (what about stereo AM?) and "let the market decide."
