I have just received a letter from Atari Corp. (UK) written by Nigel Mossman
(of Customer relations) stating that Atari Uk do *NOT* provide the same
upgrading serive as Atari (USA) do. I feel a bit let down by this. Will
Atari (US) offer this service to purchasers from overseas or is it just
for American bought machines? (Or even better, could Atari (US) bend
Atari (UK)s arm up its back and get them to provide the same service :-} )
Im sure that there are many overseas users who feel that they have been
left behind. I hope this doesnt seem like a flame, Im not into that (!)
I just feel that it is all a bit unfair and on this one occasion, I feel
disappointed in Atari. On many other occasions, I have had wonderful
service from Atari (UK) (maybe I should have posted a praising letter
then :-}) Funny how you only shout about the bad things!
