[comp.sys.atari.st] Re : Atari Jaguar

Someone mail me about the new Atari Jaguar but I can't reply to them cos
my mail is unintelligent!

Anyway...they said that they thought what I meant about the Atari Jaguar was
the new Atari Panther.

This is not so...the Atari Panther is a cut down games console based on the
ST...basically a ST without a keyboard or disc drive. Apparently it
will be launched at Comdex this week.

However, the Jaguar is a different machine....it will be 68020 based
with fancy graphics hardware probably. As I said, it will be a completly
different machine from the Panther Console.

Oops....just noticed..the second word in this letter should read "mailed"!

Anyway..can anyone shed any light on Atari's new naming policy <grin>

First the Lynx, then the Panther (console), and now the Jaguar.
