The delays had dragged on so long that I had stopped looking for it. But when I stopped by my dealer today to typeset the newsletter for the Minnesota Atari ST user group, I finally got to use a genuine production-model TT030. So long as I stuck with ST High resolution, the TT was happy with PageStream 1.8. Higher (TT-only) resolutions produced bus errors and, in one case, an ``Illegal AES call'' dialog box. (One operation in 16-color TT mode locked up the machine.) Presumably these bugs are known and will be fixed in PageStream 2.1, which is said to be only weeks away from release. The machine was clearly faster than the ST. I didn't use it to lay out the newsletter, just to drive an SLM605, so I can't offer any details. The Mega STE also was in stock. ---- Steve Yelvington / P. O.
