You weren't paying much attention to Atari's last two "new" computers,
were you?  MegaSTe and Falcon030 are _barely_ classifiable as expandible
and upgradable.  There is a serious lack of modularity in Atari's
designs, and they don't seem to keen on fixing that shortcoming.  After
all, they've been listening to us complain about it for _at_least_ seven
years now.
