 I remember a little while back, netters where complaining about Atari forcing
 dealers to purchase $10,000 worth of parts.  I now have more appreciation for
 what Atari may have been trying to do.  In my area, it is difficult to find
 an Offical Atari Dealer that will do repairs.  (I live in Los Angeles, CA)
 There are many so called "Offical Atari Dealers", but they do not do repairs.
 Apparently, once these dealers depleted their stock of parts, they decided
 not to do repair work.  

 I spoke with Atari on the phone.  I told her my dealer does not do repairs.
 When she gave me a list of dealers in my area, she told me she did not know 
 which dealers are doing repairs and which are not.

 My options where 1)Find a repair dealer in my area.  2)Send my machine to
 Atari  3)Let my dealer send my machine to Atari
 
 I found a dealer in Belflower.
