Okay folks at Atari (I know you're out there) here's an idea for ST
advertising.

In all of the interminable up-close-and-personal features ABC ran during
the Olympics, there was one on Debi Thomas, figure skater and pre-med
student using her computer.  Well, look at that, it's an Atari ST
(looks like a 1040).

Now, this would have been better if Debi had won the gold, but she is
a role model, not only as a skater but as a student, and if you want
to show the ST as a serious computer, maybe sell a few to college
students, she sounds like a perfect spokesperson to me...and she
already chose the machine!

Just an idea.
