A short note from the Bits & Bytes column by Evelyn Richards in the
buisness section of the Wednsday, July 10th morning edition of the San Jose
Mercury News.
Atari delivered on Tuesday. The Atari user groups that had paid advances
for the first Atari ST computers (dubbed Jackintosh) picked up their machines,
as scheduled, on Tuesday. The San Leandro Computer Club, for one, took away
13 systems from the loading dock, for which it paid Atari close to $10,000.
One essential piece was missing, however: the systems software diskettes.
The user group expects to pick them up soon so that the Macintosh-like com-
puters will be up and running.

"It's sort of a threat, you see. I've never been very good at them
myself but I'm told they can be very effective."
