In the Atlantis now redundant? thread; https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rbw-owners-bunch/FS3F8Q7M86g Grant replied and gives a pretty good account of the Appalosa vs Atlantis. There is this thread as well. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rbw-owners-bunch/JhACFv-ugvA My take on them is they are pretty similar and both excellent. If I had most of a build in my parts bin I think I would spring for the Appa frame otherwise I would get the Clem complete.
