  15.     Unfortunately, I can see why new users would avoid Atari.  I don't know
  16. how things are in Australia, but in the U.S., at least, Atari doesn't
  17. advertise.  If I wasn't involed with BBS's run by Atari users who all
  18. told me how great the machines were, I probably wouldn't have gotten one
  19. myself.  It would've been a BIG mistake, but one a lot of people are
  20. likely to make until Atari starts advertising!
