I think your note would have been better if you would have tried to inform the rest of us in netland as to exactly why you are so peeved. As to flaming Atari Corp., the only purpose that serves is to drive down morale. If you have a beef that really deserves attention, write a letter to Atari customer relations and/or management and/or the main stockholders. Nothing like applying pressure at the top. (Actually, I am not sure of Atari's corporate structure. How difficult would it be to send a letter to Leonard Tramiel, for example, and any chance he would read it? Same question for main stockholders.) --Patrick Simon mpsimon@phoenix.princeton.edu 2/26/88 disclaimer: ain't nobody responsible for nothin'
