Someone overhere  got some problems with the MFP chip in his Atari.
It does not recognize the busy signal from the  printer port.

The problem resides somewere inside the chip. According to the
available info a 68901 MFP  is used, but... in his Atari  a  SC87898 is
mounted.According to MOTOROLA who produced the chip, it is a
modified 68901 owned by Atari.

 Somebody, who knows were we can get this SC87898 in Europe  and why
they have modified this MFP?
