.... Much as I hate the Intel architecture, my brother has an AT clone
running MicroPort System 5 and it works pretty well. But a 68030
machine can only improve the situation. I like others I have heard on
this sig have been sorely disappointed with Atari's ability to support
the St series. To know that a machine I have heard about being in the
works for over 2 years now, will finally come out is at least one step
forward. However, I don't know what this says for Atari. Any other
company that takes that long to bring out a promised machine would have
been out of business long before now. Well enough of the bitch'n for I
am still eagerly awaiting the anouncement of the TT (or whatever they
call it).

Summary: This is more than welcome information to some of us. I was actually considering bying something with an Intel processor just so I could get a somewhat affordable version of UNIX.
