I don't have the Atlanta and I have always heard that it is the same program and
speed in Atlanta/Magellan.  Some computerfreak I know claims however that the
Atlanta is a little faster in problemsolving.

Yes, I like the look of the boards and sometimes when I buy a module it is
inside an Exclusive board ;-).  I agree that it is not correct only to count the
boards as computers.  That was the whole idea with the modular system!

remember?

Oh, this should not really have been on the list. I must have forgotten to
remove it. It is a beatiful machine and I love it, but it has been in Germany
(Arno) for over a year.  It powers up, plays a few minutes and fades out....  He
has not found the fault yet, but says he will write a very thick book about all
the test he has made when he has finished.  I still have hope...

One is SB 20 and one SB 30.  I am not shure about this, but I think the
difference between 20 and 30 was the leds on the computer.  The difference
between Smartboard I and Smartboard II is, as far as I have know, the strength
of the signal sent to the PC (sorry, shouldn't have written that word, will go
and wash my hands).
