I think Dan Moore hit the nail on the head here so I'm not going to
say the same thing again. But I would like to add the following.
If it appears that Dan is bitter, he probably is. I think one reason
some of us who were there in the beginning with the ST are so frustrated
is becuase we like the ST, for the most part, and a lot of us saw a time
when Atari really could have done something with it. It was one of the
first exciting computers in that market in a long time. We saw the
chance for success and we saw Atari screw it up, and in the process,
hurt a lot of people. I think it's also becuase we feel a little
stupid for not listening to everyone who told us that it was a big
mistake to get invloved with Atari and the Flying T's but we did it
anyway - live and learn.
