Dave, just get yourself under the Federal Witness Protection Program and then
you can spill your guts without having to worry about 'retaliation' from Atari
Corp.  :-)

I think a "gripe-group" for the ST is a good idea, but only if we can be sure
that Atari reads those gripes AND takes them to heart.  I have a few gripes
myself and would certainly be able to contribute (to a small extent) to this
new group.  But then, we might as well forget this idea:  I don't think Atari
(the higher management that is) cares too much about us Joe User's as long
as they can make a good profit WITHOUT the "hassle" of responding to customer
complaints!
I'm not sayig that there isn't ANYONE at Atari that listens (Neil and Allen
are good examples and are excluded from this "flame"), but I'm not at all
sure as to how many of our concerns make it to the 'decision makers' in the
company.

Enough said.  I certainly don't want ST sales to suffer just because I spoke
my mind.  After all, the machine is a very nice (and successful - at least
in Europe :-) one.
