- Hi !
-
- Errr... Sorry, this time, it's not a bloody joke... :) I'm not The
- Joker... Seriously, I oftenly talked with CENTaur, the guy who made the
- CENTurbo, who will soon release the CENTurbo II, and who is also designing the
- Cent40, and he is more than serious. If he is not, his lyings are really
- perfect.
-
- One asked me the snail and electronic adresses of CENTaur, here is the
- snail adress, as CENTek has no e-mail adress yet :
-
- CENTek
- 28, rue des Sorbiers
- 60290 LAIGNEVILLE
-
- FRANCE
-
- About the price, some of you seems to find it too low to be honest. I
- have no idea about the cost of designing a motherboard, so I can't give you
- some definitive argument explaining how it would be so low. Perhaps can he use
- some parts of the hardware he has already designed (CENTurbos) ? I know he is
- directly dealing with Miro France for the graphic board. Perhaps he will have
- interesting prices ? He is quite experienced in hardware designing, so I think
- he knows what he talks about.
- I trust CENTaur. From my point of view, he is the best hardware developer, I
- heard about in the Atari universe : the CENturbo I is the most reliable Falcon
- booster I ever saw and the CENturbo II is sure to be as interesting.
- I can understand, if you doubt (I will also doubt till I have the machine on my
- desk !), so, what I can say is... wait and see !! :)

-
- >> Voice synthetizer.
- >
- >Why a voice synthezeiser??
-
- Good question. Just ask CENTaur himself ! I really don't know...
-
- >Where are the midi-ports?
-
- On the sound board. I didn't talk about it, as I don't know its
- specs...
-
- >How many expansion slots?
-
- There will be ISA and PCI slots, but I can't say how many, as the specs
- haven't been published. I think there will be at least two of each kind.
