    There are other mags.

    At least they do so in Scandinavia

    Who cares.

>4. Is the A1200 any good without any Fast-ram? Does fast-ram cost money.

    Yes, it is good without Fast-ram, why don't you get the specs. before
    you put out statements like that one. I believe that you do not know much about
    the AGA-chipset.

>5. Does the A1200 have a DSP to make stunning zoom-effects.

    Commodore will release a DSP this summer + OS-support for it,
    and it won't be simple cheap stuff like the one in the Falcon,
    it will be a good quality product.

    Does the Falcon have a PCMCIA-slot ?

>5 1/2. Does the A1200 have 16-bit sound. Does a 16-bit A1200 card cost money?

    We will have it soon.

    A couple of machines sold in the U.K was faulty, other than that the A1200 is perfect.

   This has nothing to do with the A1200, get your facts straight.

>8. Are there any "A1200 only" games out there yet. If not what's the use?
>   Games sell machines don't they?

    Yes there are.
