Depends.  If they make a profit selling Amiga software, than that
profit can be channeled into Atari ST development, which is clearly
better than if they hadn't produced Amiga software at all.

steve> BTW, who is "RJ Michal"?


Actually, the name is RJ Mical.  He is one of the co-designers of the
Atari Lynx, and also the principal architect of Intuition, the Amiga
user interface.
