- Why not?!!? I mean CBM did hire the designer of the PCjr. He then threw AAA
- on the backburner so he could get the A600 design going!! I
- remember back in 1988 or 89, before the A3000 was out, someone asked Jay

- that they wouldn't have the 32bit CMOS chipset going. Yet even the
- A1200/A4000 of late 92 still hadn't fully accomplished even that.
