I have just read the response to my posting regarding Atari's mega-st marketing policies. 1) As for my using expletives on the network, I apologize publicly for my language in my original posting. 2) The 'Guys at Atari' say that this policy doesn't apply to music stores.....interesting, both of the places I talked to were music stores. The first is a full line music store that has been selling ST's for at least 6 months now. As soon as the MEGA'S were available, they had them. These are the guys that told me ' uuuummmm we're re-evaluating whether we're going to carry Atari computers anymore' Isn't it a coincidence that this statements comes one day after the other dealer I talked to tells me he received the letter from Atari outlining the new policy. 3) The 'Guys from Atari' suggest that I check my facts more carefully before posting to the net. Just exactly who am I supposed to check with if not the 2 dealers in town that I know of ???? I can assure you that my original posting was based on information I received from local Atari dealers as stated. If your policy is what you say it is, then I can assure you that you have some confused dealers in Boston , Mass. keith hedger
