I mean really, any good business would keep around a major sinking ship just because it has such a big heart. Let's condemn Atari. Let's condemn Warner Communcations for doing the same thing to Atari years back. Let's condemn free enterprise entirely and let mediocrity take over. <end sarcasm> Good move, Atari. I was surprised when the decision was made to purchase it. -- Eric Griswold (ericg@sco.COM) "That's no baby.
