Have you checked out the price?  If I were an SE owner, I'd keep the SE and buy
an SE/30 (the $$ difference between upgrading and buying new isn't all that much).
And then I'd have TRUE multitasking... ;-O ;-P ;->

Oh, there's a different synonym for them now?  C'mon, Richard -- they've found
their niche and exploit it fairly well.  Don't blame them for not being Apple.
Expect less from Atari; you'll live longer. ;-)

Oh give me a break!  There's a rather big price jump between the 16 & 25MHz parts.
It sounds like a reasonable trade-off to me.  Assuming it ever gets on the shelf,
which is what we're all waiting for, right?

Will you and Greg please take your arguments to email?  Those of us who haven't
yet added an entry for "Richard E. Covert" to our kill-files would probably
appreciate it.  Everyone airs their gripes now & then (I plead guilty), but this
IS getting a bit stale...
