I just got back from Comdex.  It's hard to separate what I actually heard/saw
from what I wished (except that Moniterm Viking monitors are definitely 
real and beautiful).  My impression was that TOS 1.4 is considered ready, and
*some* ROM-s are being delivered to Atari.  My impression was that 
everyone who should have known for sure considered the 16 MB limit on disk
partition size a dead issue (but the explanations varied).  My impression
was that the new guy in charge of Atari software (is Antonio Salerno the
right name?) means to put things in better shape, starting NOW and continuing
for as long as it takes----and is tough enough to have a chance of doing it.
The PC4, STACY and the Portfolio were spoken of as if the engineering on them
was done, and production was imminent.  The TT was not on display, but the
talk about it was along the lines of "it'll be wonderful, and not so far in
the future either, but we're displaying the things we'll be selling first".
    All in all, a very promising show.  If the 2 lightweights and the PC4
actually get introduced before the next Comdex, and Megas are shipping with
TOS 1.4, maybe we'll be able to say Atari promised a lot and delivered on it.
