I've been literally flooded by request for more info on 68'881
board I mentioned, please be patient, it will take some time till
I've answered all letters. I haven't contacted Lischka Datentechnik
myself either, since I live in Switzerland and telphone calls to
Germany are not that cheap, but if nobody in Germany gives them a
call in the next few days (hint, hint!) I will.
In the April number of 'ST Computer' there is a picture of the
68'881 board from Atari for the Mega ST (which according to Neil
Harris is not going to be sold by Atari and according to
'ST Computer' will be sold as an add-on :-)). I still think that
it would be a good idea for Atari to provide the interface
electronics + socket for the 68'881 on the blitter upgrade.

PS: c't is a German magazine (one of the better ones), as far as
I know its not avaiable in the US (bad luck).
