Atari Panther
The Atari Panther was the 32 bit predecessor to the Atari Jaguar,
developed by the same ex-Sinclair team Flare Technology responsible
for the Flare One and Konix Multisystem.
It featured three chips, consisting of a Motorola
68000 running at 16Mhz, an object processor called the Panther, and an
Ensoniq sound processor called Otis, featuring 32 sound channels. The
Panther could display 8,192 colors from an 18 bit palette of 262,144
colors, and supported 65,535 sprites of any size simultaneously. The
Panther was never manufactured as the design was eclipsed by that of
the Jaguar. More information: http://www.homecomputer.de/pages/panther.html
