I don't understand what all the hoopla about the somewhat limited
capabilities of the TT is all about?  Here in NYC, you can buy a brand
new Mac IIcx for $2999.  If you want a 68030 environment, this path
seems to be a bit more logical as you'll have tons of software to
choose from, more expansion slots and the support of a company that
releases real products in a timely manner.  Sorry for the flame Atari
people, but you've just lost a customer.  The vapor games finally got
to be a bit too annoying.  I don't think the TT will be a match for the
Mac IIcx or Mac SE/30 anyway (speedwise or supportwise).

I will keep my lil' ST around for the occasional game though. :-)
