- About the bus in the Falcon. I have seen two messages from John Townsend.
- One said the Falcon had a 32bit bus and this latest one says it doesn't.
- Personally I don't care. It will be faster than my ST, with better graphics and
- thats all that matters for me...
-
- BTW I don't even know what the bus is anyway :-)
-
- Also, isn't it possible to remove the 030 processor and replace it with a faster
- one, like the 50Mhz 030 in the SST accelerator?
-
- Surely this must make a huge difference in speed?

- 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".
