Summary: A slight Correction to Chuck's posting


     Chuck mentioned in his blurb on the Atari announcement that the Mega
ST's had a real time clock.  To avoid confusion, *all* ST's have real-time
clocks.  What's new is the fact that the Mega ST's have fully supported
Battery Backed real-time clocks.  On the old ST's we had to have 3rd party
battery kits or similar kludges to add battery power for the clock.  Atari
has listenned to Atari-users in all their upgrades on the MegaST.  Most of
us were astounded, not so much by the technology represented by the upgrade
but by what it represents as company policy.  I don't think I've ever felt
that I've been listened to in this fashion before by *any* company.

Cheers! -- Jim O.
