This was posted on a BBS in New York. It mentions some rumours from the
August issue of ST-Log. Can anyone else confirm if any of these are true?

=>From    : Bob Mulholland
=>Subject : New News?

=>Well, I did read some rumours in ST-Log (August issue). A third party is
=>working on GEM 2.2, which is now be marketed in Germany. It comes with GEM
=>Write, GEM Paint and GEM Draw. Atari may have the PC emulator out by this
=>Fall. Atari will be shipping the Imagen Postscript software clone called
=>UltraScript for the laser printers. Oh yeah, the price on GEM 2.2 is
=>300dm, which is about $148.00. Please don't anyone send me any nasty mail
=>about where are these products or "oh sure, will see them at crack of doom
=>with the rest of the vaporware." Remember, someone asked what was
=>happening and I'm QUOTING ST-Log (I hold no responsibility whether or not
=>they come true).

Has anyone out there heard anything about any of these? I seem to recall 
hearing some time ago about the UltraScript. The other stuff is interesting
but new. Hope someone can confirm or deny some of these.

Thanks.
