On the point of Atari designing there own Video chips for the ST, I
don't think so. The specs given for the ST machine look exactly like
those for Motorola's new RMS/X color video controller chip set. A nice
chip set that has everything one could want for a personal computer. The
only question of mine is availability. The chip set isn't going to
be available in production numbers for a few months still at least I
think. The same for the floppy/harddisk interface that is supposed to
come standard. Motorola has a new VLSI chip set designed to handle that
too. All these chips were designed with the 68000 in mind. Now if
someone like Atari would only use them for something...
