According to Compute magazine, 40% of the production cost of
the new 1200 is the 64k ram chips. If that is true does that
mean it cost Atari about $150 dollars to produce it? The article
mentioned that the production cost (once it start selling) will
be lower than the either the 400 or 800.  Does this mean we will
someday see the 1200 selling for about 200 ?
