- Yes, this is the only negative really about the rumours about the Falcon.
- The recent reports all seem to point to 640x480 as the max at least for
- the initial model. I sincerely hope that Atari plans on 800x600 or
- 1024x768 colour in a later model at well under $2000. Otherwise they
- will release a brand new machine in 1992 that has lower res than
- PC SuperVGA has had for some time. In 1992 640x480 just doesn't cut it.
- The rest of the machine sounds wonderful though.
