   It must be true then! I guess you believe your TV in similar way. ;-)

   The sad truth is that Atari market, like any other market, was filled with   
   not-so-truthful claims. I remember the AB040 advertised with the BCLK clock   
   (claiming that the AB040 is capable of running at 64 MHz), a proof that it's   
   total BS was part of CT2    
   documents (which was, in retrospective, also advertised with full of lies,   
   "easy installation" anyone? ;-)).
