I have a few questions about the 520 ST I'm curious about:

	Speech synthesis: is there any?
	Sound digitization- ditto?

	Is it true that, by fiddling with interrupts, one is able to
get more colors on the screen than normally?

	Multitasking- is there any?
	Are double-sided disks and single-sided disks compatible/incompatible
with each other and with their respective drives in any way(s)?

Any meaningful responses appreciated-
I still can't decide between an ST and an Amiga...
