- Having just read this months ST Format and ST Review (the best one), I thought
- I would post some interesting info.
-
- They say that the Falcon030 will be *widely* available next spring.
- (Most of us knew this already) But in a new case.
- BTW I thought the specs said the 030 was a 32bit computer, not 16bit like some
- people are saying. (we'll just have to wait and see!)
-
- Also a Falcon040 with 32Mhz 32 bit processor + DSP etc will be *released* next
- November and be available spring '94.
-
- Also being released at the same time will be a CD Falcon which will have either
- a cut down keyboard ie no keypad or F keys, and have a built in CD ROM which
- will probably be CD-I compatible.
-
- There was also some talk about the software being produced for the Falcon.
- (the graphics look incredible, especially the pics from Legends of Valour!)
-
- Desperately wanting to get hold of a Falcon in a new case,
- Phil

- Kryten (When Cat says why don't we raise the defensive shields?) "A superlative
- suggestion sir,with only two drawbacks: one,we don't have any defensive shields
- and two,we don't have any defensive shields.I know that,technically,that's only
- one drawback,but it was such a big one I thought I'd mention it twice".
