Well the Mega is here but the blitter is not!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have talked to Atari and "I will see it in Jan.????????", I have a question for other people in the Canadian market, "How long did you have to wait after buying your Mega before(and if) your blitter showed up?". I know there is problems with the mass production end of things, but it is a REAL DRAG waiting for something that has already been PAID for. I just hope that the people at Atari can get things together soon, I know they are trying. A question to the people that do have them, just how much of an increase is there in graphics?, is there any speed increase in the fills, and line drawing of any noticable degree? Thanx(sorry to bend your ear) Barry
