- What many of you seem to forget is that Dave is just ONE developer
- that has had a negative experience with Atari.
-
- If you could replay the last five years of GEnie, CompuServe, Usenet,
- and online magazines such as STReport, you will see similar
- experiences to what Dave has reported.
-
- And you can't just say, "Oh, Ralph just has a negative attitude towards
- Atari..." because he didn't write these experiences.
-
- He does seem to magnify the problems so that a lot of people that
- don't seem to understand what is going on, will understand.
- But the people that do understand, the online magazine looks like
- a b*tch fest sometimes.
-
-
- I talk with developers through e-mail that I've met through Usenet
- and they have told me similar stories. I have also talked with Lynx
- game programmers that do not believe they will ever program another
- Lynx game again. This is because of how Atari handles things.
-
- If Dave was the first to report problems with Atari, I would question
- if what he was saying was true or not. But, he is not the first
- and unfortunately, probably not the last...
-
- The fact is, things won't change unless people like you start
- writing people at Atari that can make changes.
