Richard Covert, in a thoughtful mood, got to comparing various ST levels
with an Apollo workstation.  With the recent discussion of windowing systems,
this brings up the question of whether a TT with UNIX (tm of AT&T) will be
able to run the UNIX side of uw.  I think that means either sockets and job
control or some substantial modification.  I know, Atari has outgrown the era
of describing features of unannounced products.  But Atari people, let us
know when it IS announced, ok?  And consider the marketing value of a demo
with the TT running its own application while someone on an ST had 4 windows
open to sessions hosted on the TT.  Pass it along to some business types, if
they ever mix with the techies.
