- There are many Atari employees who read Usenet. There are some who
- post to Usenet (I'm one of them). Those of us who do generally try
- to avoid getting involved in threads that are "no win" propositions,
- or about which we don't know the details. I understand that David is
- upset at Atari; I wasn't around when he was here, and so I can't
- comment on what happened during his visit. But I can assure him (and
- anyone else reading) that Atari employees do care about the people
- who own our computers. Indeed, most Atari employees I know own
- an Atari computer.
-
- I am not an Atari spokesperson, nor do I have anything to do with
- marketing or manufacturing (so don't bother flaming me about our
- problems in those areas... which the appropriate people do know about,
- and are taking steps to ameliorate).
