	Hear, Hear! All I've been seeing is flames about hardware and
	the way Atari is run.  We can do little about those things, but
	isn't there something we can do to turn around the small and
	shrinking (at least in the U.S.A.) applications software base?
	I can't find software titles that were out years ago, e.g. some 
	compilers, an on-the-fly keyboard macro program, an outliner-word 
	processor like More on the Mac (all there ever was was Hippo Concept),
	and new ones are not out there replacing them.  If this doesn't 
	change soon I may be forced to go to permanent emulation (haven't
	done it at all - yet ;-}).  Constructive suggestions desired.
