- Uh, well, like you say, Steve, everyone has their own opinion. And mine is
- that the Falcon is positioned _between_ the MegaSTe and the TT. Sure, it
- has that nifty DSP and new graphics resolutions, but it hasn't the processor
- speed, expandability, superior case design, etc, etc of the TT. The Falcon's
- market niche is the home user. The TT's market is the low-end workstation.
- Both are best in their own areas of speciality.

- But in the end... "You pays yer money and you takes yer choice." :)
