I had the identical experience recently.. and my opinions
were much the same as Richard's.

Frankly, condidering
the state ATARI is in these days...
Seems more reasonable to make the developer's kit
robust, cheap and thorough.  

ATARI needs to attract as many good developer's
as possible.  All i read regarding developer
support is a great sense of frustration and
resultant indignation.

Can ATARI "afford" to be this way?
