Maybe you laugh now, but Atari showed Falcon again at Canada expo and
some developers already have it!!

So far Atari tell these specs for the Falcon '030;

M68030 32-bit, 16-50 MHZ models
DSP56001, 16 bit STEREO input/ourput CD sound
640x480 at least up to 1280x960 64K-16Million color graphics
1.44 MBytes floppy/ Hard drive
SCSI
LAN
MIDI
joysticks (4)
serial and parallel
multitasking
starting price around $800!!  Shipping in fall.

If that look like ZX81 then you need some brains.
