MEGA ST - Atari Corporation's new look for the ST in 1987. Includes TOS 1.4 which improves hard drive access and GEM features, plus a graphics co-processor has been added to speed up video.

from 1987, the Atari MEGA ST desktop publishing package; included a SM124 monitor, Megafile hard drive, SLM804 laser printer, and software. Still, it costs less than an IBM PS/2 or Apple Mac SE beginner system alone.

This system drove the next version of Atari's Graphics Environment Manager desktop, with multiple windows remarkably like the Microsoft Windows (or I-Mac) in front of you now. The 2-button mouse was driven by rubber-ball design still used years later, overall the design is actually the same as the TRAK-BALL controller used on arcade games introduced and patented by Atari - 1977's "Football"
