HOW Sendetsky A., Nikitin VP, Stepanov E.,
gruppa "Code Busters" in full and sostave
mnogie drugie. I dumayu that unto you budet nebezinteresno 
uznat that zhe is takoe.

Protsessor rabotaet vmeste with soprotsessorami in rezhime DMA

     ECS Denise - videografiki control,
vstroennaya podderzhka spraytov, skrollerov, fillinga, formatov.

Unikalnaya osobennost kompyutera - mnogozadachnost, 
podderzhannaya apparatno. Proizvoditelnost protsessora nevelika,

but rabote with grafikoy nA urovne by IBM
protsessorom Pentium 90.

     By kolichestvu software from Amiga mozhet
tyagatsya only Spectrum - neskolko thousands programm, a by 
kachestvu konkurentov net.


     When primenenii uskoritelya to 60 MHz
model A4000T rabotaet bystree Pentium120 on vsem testam.
