Bullshit. How one engages in business is applicable across the board, whether the company you're dealing with wants to succeed or (in your estimation) whether they want to fail. I don't NEED to deal with Atari Corporation in order to know what standards I set for myself with regard to business meetings. I don't NEED to personally deal with Atari Corporation in order to know that if I don't have a clear set of goals going into a business meeting, I am surely not going to come out of that meeting having met any goals. I don't NEED to deal with Atari Corporation to have enough sense to ask for an agenda and a list of the people with whom I am going to meet. Your suggestion that one has to have dealt directly with Atari before one is capable of issuing any judgement upon practical business tactics is ludicrous. Your assertion that until I have actually dealt with Atari I am in no position to state how I WOULD deal with Atari is yet another example of the extent your apparent PERSONAL hatred for that particular corporation extends. -- David Paschall-Zimbel
