- Atari corp has had long enough already.. Let's not play nice guy
- with hat in hand approaching them for a "favor".
- Who cares idf we piss them off? What are they gonna do..drop 8-bit
- supprort? Ha!
- I'm tellin' you..I will not buy any of their products, present or
- future, no matter how glitzy..until they properly address the customers
- they have abandoned!
- As a matter of fact..the TV station I work for was looking for a
- graphics machine, and I am in charge of selecting the system...
- The ST would do a better job at a cheaper price..do you think I
- stuck my neck out and supported the Atari product?
- Hell no...get a PC I told em!
- They bought 6 (six) of the darn things!
-
- Yes Atari..I am your worst advertiser..what do you think of that?
- So if there are others of you out there who feel the same way, let's
- pull it together and tell these guys to get a GRIP , or we will trash
- their reputation worldwide...
-
- That is the only way I kow to deal with a large, unresponsive company.
