- Wakey-wakey Dave. Atari's soon not going to even HAVE a 68000 machine
- in their line -- they're just too darn slow by today's standards.

- If you bought a "new machine" and it was an ST, then you've just popped
- through a time warp. Check out the prices 1040STe's are being flogged
- off at by long-term Atari dealers - it's a runout sale. I picked up
- a SM146 for $AU190, which is quite a saving!! They're all about to
- become obsolete [though the SM146 is a *nice* monitor!].

- Smell some roses for a change.
