Oops, that was supposed to be a separate sentence relating to the 1 meg
of ram and the Motorola 68000 16/32 bit architecture [thereby ST]
running at 8 MHz with an efficient little OS loaded from a ROM chip.  My
preferred monitor was B&W which came in a 'hirez' 640x400 which looked
much better than the ugly color 320x200.  Amazing that such a tiny OS on
a rom chip could do so much -- the interface was entirely graphical.
