The last few weeks I've read peoples daydreams and wishlists about the 68020
ad-on.I would like also the idea of a faster computer .But that ad-on will not
ad new features to the existing ST,except an other OS.
So that's why I want to plead (ATARI are you there...!) for an ad-on with an
advanced graphics microprocessor, like the Texas Instrument's TMS34010, as a
number one priority to develop .It should ad a resolution >= 800*600 with at
least 256 simultaneous colours.Now that would make a (almost) perfect
computer.

Atari faire in Pittsburg, when asked about `toys' atari had in store for us, one of the things mentioned was a 1Kx1K monochrome display. Neil are you keep up your end.
