===The 68030 machines===
In 1990, Atari released the high-end workstation-oriented [[Atari TT|TT]] (32-MHz, 68030-based TT030). Originally planned with a 68020 CPU, the TT included improved graphics and more powerful support chips. The case was a new design with an integrated hard drive enclosure.

The final ST computer was the multimedia [[Atari Falcon|Falcon]] (also 68030-based, operating at 16&nbsp;MHz, but with improved video modes and extensive custom chip provisions, particularly high-quality audio DSPs).  Although 68030 microprocessor was capable of using 32-bit memory, the Falcon used a 16-bit bus which impacted performance, but also served to reduce its cost.  In another cost-reduction measure, Atari shipped the Falcon in an inexpensive case much like that of the ST<sup>E</sup>.  After-market upgrade kits were available that allowed the Falcon to be put in a desktop or rack-mount case, with the keyboard separate.

Released in 1992, it was cancelled by Atari the following year.  In Europe, C-Lab licenced the Falcon design from Atari and released the C-Lab Falcon Mk I (the same as Atari's Falcon except for some slight modifications to the audio circuitry), Mk II (as Mk I but with a 500 MB hard disk) and Mk X (as Mk II but in a desktop case).
