Yeah, a good amount of advertising is essential. Do you think the magazines would
take more notice of Atari if Atari advertised in them thus giving the some dosh?
I'm inclined to think that some adverts in say Computer Shopper or possibly
(though less useful these days) PCW would be a really smart move on Atari's part.
