text: 'Not entirely true: only the 520 STF(M) models have a floppy drive built in. There were also 520 ST(+) models that had the same dimensions as the 260 (in fact, rebranded 260''''s) and therefore no built-in floppy drive.'

text: The 260 ST has no build in floppy disc drive. I should know as I was one of the first buyers/owners back in the days. Still own that wonderful machine :-)

text: That Amiga section is wrong as well. The ST was not rushed on to the market and was never planned around Amiga technology. It was in fact started \*before\* Jack purchased the Consumer Division. Likewise Atari Inc. was certainly not contracting manufacturing to Amiga, they were simply licensing Amiga''s custom chips. And even then it was for a game console, not a computer. The pending licensing agreement was for an Amiga based game console to be released for the Winter of ''84, which would be allowed to expand with a keyboard expansion in ''85. Then finally in ''86 Atari Inc. would be allowed to release a regular Amiga based computer. Amiga wanted the time to release their own computer on the market - which the pending agreement stipulated. We cover the entire situation in Atari Inc. - Business Is fun (on Amazon) including showing some of the original agreement.

text: That intro is completely wrong. He did not by Atari Inc., he bought a division of Atari Inc. - the Consumer Division. He in turn folded that in to his own company (TTL) and renamed that to Atari Corporation.
