Anybody have a bridge they want to sell this guy?   His he for real?
If so, where has he been the past few years?   Doesn't this sound
strikingly similar to Atari's claims around every COMDEX and CES for
the past four (or is it five) years?

Maybe someone should list all of Atari's past "dream machines" and promises
of brighter futures for old Tim here.  Can you name five?  Ten? I thought
you could.
