Does anyone know if TOS 1.4 will fix certain bugs with the blitter like the current ones with filled circles and patterns? Is it just my Mega ST2 that has these problems? Could it be my blitter? I get bombs in several programs that run fine with the blitter off, so I hope the problem is with the blitter TOS. Thanks for any responses. Michael Stepniczka mts10271@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu

Does anyone know if Atari's announced when TOS 1.4 will be available? How 'bout when it will be built into new machines? Finally, what about the upgrade strategy/price for older machines? The reason behind all this is that I periodically contemplate buying a Mega, but given all the fixes that are alleged to be in 1.4, I'd much rather be running that than the old stuff. I'd also like to avoid buying a new machine, then getting socked with a hefty upgrade charge a month later. Thanks in advance for any info. Replies should probably go straight to me, as the digests seem to be falling into a black hole again.
