The discussions about the STE being vapourware has been more or less frantic. Soon we'll all see if it's true. I have ordered one! (yes, I *know*. You're not interested. But please, do not flame me! You might be interested in hearing about it's capabilities, or the lack of them!) Do anyone have the specifications for the new chips? The I/O-adresses and so on. Any information would be of great help. Maybe Atari Corp? :-) What do you say, eh? I've heard rumours about the STE having 8 stereo 8-bit PCM sound channels. But now a friend of mine, who has access to one of the developement machines says it only has ONE stereo 8-bit channel! And that it's impossible to change the frequency on that channel like on the Amiga. It is according to him only possible to set fixed freqencies like the crystal /1, /2, /4, /8 etc. Is this correct? I've been promised to get the STE on Thursday or Friday. We'll see then.
