In today's NY Times (11/15) Atari has a full-page ad announcing the new
price of the 800XL to be $119.95.  Also, in Tuesday's Science Times
section, which tends to run numerous computer store ads, an outfit
called Harmony Video in Bklyn was advertising 1050's for under $150.
(I think the exact price was $139.)  They have a toll-free line for
anyone interested.

Now, the big question is, is Trammiel just clearing the shelves before
discontinuing the line altogether, or is this a revenge move against
Commodore for Xmas?
