Hey, guy, good work!
	But... Why no monitor port, I want colour graphics! And a floppy drive
is a must. almost all PC notebooks got 'em, and if Atari ever wants to
sell to anyone other than current atari faithful, they had better follow
the competition. DS/DD is archaic! We need 1.44 meg, not just for this
notebook, but for all ST/TT's. I write this in the hope that enough
external pressure will force a redesign. Also, without a cartridge port,
unless D.Small makes his internal emulator, there will be no Mac market.
This is too bad.
BTW, I have  STacy, and so I know how badly Atari can screw up in the
portable market!
