Other people (non-Atari employees) have said that they have heard that it will be used for a math coprocessor. The announced delivery date for the laser printer is "late spring". The $495 pc clone and the pc emulator for the ST are two completely separate products. According to my sources the reason that the pc emulator hasn't appeared yet is that there's been problems getting it through FCC certification. dgc
