There was an article in the newspaper last week that Epyx laid off about 100 employees and is down to a staff of about 16. Rumor has it that Atari didn't pay Epyx for the development of the Lynx, and now Epyx has gone back to just making XE/XL games. So, if this rumor is true, then don't expect to see the Lynx. Looks like another Atari CD-ROM, BliTTered 1040ST vaporware to me!! Richard (What's Wrong with Atari Anyway??) Covert
