Here's what Atari says about the TT in their 1988 Annual Report (I just got
it):

  "Atari TT.  The 68030 based Atari TT will be the newest member of our
  flagship line.  In addition to running existing ST software, the TT 
  can also run the industry standard Unix operating system with the 
  X-Windows graphical user interface.  This powerful computer features 
  stereo sampled sound and six video resolutions, up to 1280 x 960 
  (monochrome) and 640 x 480 (color), from a palette of over 256,000 colors.
  The TT will be able to interface with the outside world through industry 
  standard SCSI, VME, MIDI and RS232 ports.  Local Area Networking (LAN) 
  comes standard on the TT system and Ethernet will be available to 
  further enhance this product."

I know this answered some questions for me but left more new ones unanswered.
