I used to do a lot of bussiness with Atari, and I KNOW that
the home computer division and the Video Games divisions were indeed
boththe same company... but with seperate managemant. I guess both points
are correct in their own way. Of course a LOT has happened since
then (about two years) and I cannot say for sure that they have not split even
further. 
Some of this discussion came about because I assumed that Atari would make 
an attempt to put Gauntlet on its 520ST .. This probably just reflects the fact that I have been favorably impressed by the 520 and would really just
like an excuse to buy one. I also agree with a previous note that the 
Atari 800 is a great buy these days
