...Of course the IBM PC and XT are also 8-bit machines, though their processor, like the 6809 of the Radio Shack Color Computer, provides some support for 16-bit results. The 68000 is a "true" 16-bit machine, with support for 32-bit results, as is the 80286. So it's no wonder the ST is more comparable to an AT than to a plain PC. -John Sangster jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa (I really should post this on the IBM-PC-Lovers' net!)
