I think there is a major unanswered question about the 030 (for me anyway).
That is, can the DSP56001 access main memory directly? Otherwise it's
limited to 32K of it's own memory, which is not enough for some applications
(apparantly it can get stuff from the main memory via DMA and a processor
direct slot from the main processor, whatever that is).

So far everyone has told me that it CAN'T access main memory directly, except
for Atari UK which specifically told me over the phone that it can. Other
people have then suggested to me that Atari may be being economical with the
truth.

Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks in anticipation,
