That "only" means they have to outsell companies such as IBM, Apple, Digital Equipment...and not in terms of "# of machines sold" but in amount of profit made! How much chance of that happening? Hell may freeze over first... (This is not meant as a put-down of Atari, but simply a comparison of SIZE. After all, companies like IBM and DEC make BILLIONS in profits on their computers...Atari's profits are not likely to approach any such numbers in the near future.)
