    Ah, but what about simply raising the "price" on their Amigas so that
no or very few people will buy them???  I like the idea, and in just a few hour
s the BBSes over here in Silicon Valley has really stirred up with action.
Everyone has liked the idea, though I would rather, see GEMdos be debugged, I
also like the idea of Atari Being publicised heavily by a chain store.  Also
isn't that what the Software Departement is supposed to do???  This will
probably mean that there will be a bunch of new jobs, and a bunch of laid off
workers.  One thing I will miss is that guy in their commercials, <sniff>.
It's going to be hard getting used to seeing Uncle Jack there instead.
