I Believe that Hasbro has killed many Atarians due to them saying that there not planning on creating/reviving Atari systems. This has made Atarians lose hope even those who properly thought that there would not be any more Atari systems made/remade but they always had hope and now that Hasbro has said they've no plan on making any has killed hope and some have gone on to other systems. I say lets show these corporate wankers that they don't know what they're talking about by signing some of the petition around on the net. I myself only recently got the internet on (but on a Mac) and I never relised how many Atarians are still out there. the first Atari I owned was an ST at least 10yrs ago (still got it) and for me there was no other choice because it was so advanced at the time and affordable and at the time then after that I bought many other Atari systems they include many 2600s, two 130XE (I also had a Sega Master System at the time but the XE seemed a lot better), Atari Lynx (one heck of a machine but unfortunately they were hard to buy even when they were new in Far North Queensland Australia they sold quicker than they could stock them, and everybody I knew would want to play it but some were real wankers and end up wrecking them which I ended going through three of them because of it now I"m up to my fourth and I make sure that I'm there when somebody else is using it and everybody seems to ask where they can buy one (I'm planning on buying some more for myself and some to others). I've also have had other Atari systems which I can't remember but never a Jaguar but wish I did. I believe that the Atari ST/TT/Falcon & any other TOS compatiple machine to be great the ST is no where near as fast as my Mac but I always happy to use the ST. I also work with PC,Amiga & Mac but I still like using the ST more.
I like to also say I don't see any people dedicated to a 286, 386 or any other old PC and I don't think they ever will. With Apple & Amiga, there are people dedicated to their older systems but no where near big as Atari's fan.
So I say fight for survial and don't go towards hell (PC) -trust I have gone there and it's not pretty the devil (Bill Gates) tries to make it look good and tells you how great it is though once you're there it just irritates you, but instead be a good Atarian and keep Atari alive by staying dedicated to what was once a great company until one of Satan's army (Hasbro) took it over.
