My small contribution: it is my understanding that the TOS 1.4 ROMS now
being made available to developers are PROMS.  My years of study of Murphy's
law have left the twin beliefs that masks are always a little bit wrong, and
that no matter what the specification was, the masked ROM is the standard.
Therefore, unless some Atari person says that TOS 1.4 will be in PROMS for
all its users for a good long while, I can wait for the masked programmed
version.                                Steve J.
