	On Saturday, I was watching the newest episode of Star Trek:TNG 
and an Atari ST commercial came up.  It was comparing the ST to the Mac SE
and the IBM PS/50.  It went along the lines of we buy chips, they buy chips,
we buy plastic, they buy plastic, so why the cost difference?  Because with 
them you have to buy these exspensive parts.  At this point in the commercial
IBM and Apple's logos are shown.  The commercial then went into a very brief
pitch about the ST's capabilities.  My question is this.  Is this a new 
commercial?  Is Atari finally going to poke it's head into the USA market?
I have my doubts but I'm (sigh) always hopeful.
