That's an interesting comment..!
 
People who own just PCs have far better things to do with their
time and computers than come here and try to evangalize Atari
owners...
 
They do things like Desktop Publishing, Word Processing, Graphics
and Music, Business Applications, and even Games, on their PCs...

If you read any of the PC newsgroups, you find people who are
busily and happily using their computers, instead of fighting
over the remains of a dead software company, or trying their
best to defend the bizzare business practices of the company that
manufactures their computer.  (Or discussing how great it will
be.. someday.. when the new  _________ computer is finally
released... someday... )
 
PC owners don't much care about the Atari world.. if they even
know it exists...
 
It's Atari owners who exist in more than just the "Atari ghetto"
who seem to rub the "Atari religious" the wrong way...
 
"The Truth" is not welcome here...
