ONE new Atari dealer opens in California somewhere, >and it's a world-wide media event... that's pretty sad..! I COULD NOT AGREE MORE. The people at Atari need an entire new way of thinking. ONE new Atari dealer opens in California and Bob Brodie cannot be more pleased. The problem is that FIVE past Atari dealerships are CLOSING at the same time. I wrote an article in Z*Net about themarketing importance of the Falcon030 bundle. I would not have written it if I didn't think Atari would goof up how they sold the Falcon. Many people complain about the people complaining about Atari. But what they don't seem to realize is that the people complaining about Atari were the BIGGEST Atari supporters of the 1980's. They have every right to complain. And you are totally right about the fact that there would be no wars, little flames, etc. IF Atari was doing everything that they should be doing. > >BobR > --
