Hi:

I was just about to get Macintosh, when ... well, you know
the story...

Are there any materials available about those new GEM machines
that would help me to get out of this dilemma: what to buy if
I have a good offer on Mac but not as good as what atari claims
to offer ?

Would you suggest any reviews, "not a review" disclaimed articles,
and your personal observations on this subject ?

The obvious initial lack of software for the new machines is not
a problem, to a degree, of course, since it could also be a
opportunity.

Please, H-E-L-P !!! 

One of the concerns was atari's financial complications, so
the financial and support reliability observations will be
greatly appreciated.

If the net expresses interest in this subject I will post a
summary of the responses. I also will not include in this
summary any mail on this subject that will state "not for
distribution", etc.

				Thanx in advance.
