Hi, I just attended the Consumer Electronics Show in Nassau Coliseum,NY. There was not one vender that had Atari 1040/520 hardware or software. At least last year there were 2 or 3 venders that sold Atari. The situation is not much better when trying to find places that sell Atari in Nassau County. There are only about 5 and they have small selections of software, most of which are games. Finding hardware is even more difficult. I would like someone from Atari to comment on this. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> <> <> <> To:John Barkaus <> <> At:The Cooper Union for ihnp4!philabs!phri!cooper!john <> <> the Advancement of || <> <> Science and Art "phri!cooper!john"@nyu.arpa <> <> <> <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Summary:Is it like this everwhere? Keywords:Dealers I have been seeing alot of messages in the last while about there being a shortage of dealers. Well I must say that we have very good up here in Nova Scotia Canada, our local dealer has roughly 300-400 titles in stock at all times for the 8-bit and ST computers. The selection in nothing short great. We seem to get all the titles before alot of other dealers for some reason???? And to boot we are a full repair dealer. There is always hardware in stock(only one blittered Mega yet so far, Are you listining Atari?). Well I do feel sorry for anyone that does not have the support that they should have, a machine like the ST should have the best support in the industry. Later Barry
