I really don't see the problem with hardware upgrades.  Its seems that the
current price trend of UNIX boxes is down, down, down.  In BYTE there is an
ad for a portable BSD 4.2 system that has all the software anyone could want;
the price, $5995US (including hard drive).  The price is dropping on real
machines, Atari knows this and is trying to catch-up with their 68020 box.  

For me, the choice is simple.  My next computer will be a real machine, meaning
it will run some flavor of UNIX.  I doubt that I will purchase it from
ATARI.  Every time I go to create a new folder, I remember that I already have
39 of them and decide  that I don't really need it.  What surprises await me
in their 68020 box?  Sorry Jack, I want to drive a Ferrari too so I'm going
to be very careful with my money and "invest" it in a machine/company I can 
count on.  

Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me.
