- This proves nothing. Commodore employees never post anything specific about
- hardware that is in the works, but isn't yet out. If there was an Amiga 4200,
- let's say an A4000 with SCSI and a CDROM, due out in February, you'd probably not
- see any postings from CBM employees at all. We already know there are several
- ways to connect CDROM players to A2000/A3000's, just not any from CBM, and there
- are the A570 for A500's, and A670 for A600/1200 available, so it's not as though
- there's no CDROM support at all, just not the CDROM support you desire.
