Let me start out by saying that I bought my 520ST in July of 1985. My
understanding is that it may have been the 2nd Atari ST sold in the province
of Ontario. Next I moved to a 1040ST and now I have a Mega 2. Before I
became a VAR for a dealer in Ottawa, I arranged a group purchase of STs. Now,
with the VAR effort I have either sold, arranged the purchase or spawned
the purchase of over 100 Atari STs (not bad considering I live in a town
with 4000 residents!). Locally, I'm known as mister Atari. BUT, BUT, BUT...

More and more I wonder why I stick with Atari since it's getting harder to
justify them. The price advantage is gone over the PCs and the 68000 crowd
has moved to 68020s and 68030s (except for Atari). From what I read about
the Amiga it makes me wonder when Atari is going to release its infamous
68030 TT.

Maybe I'm losing faith because it's so late. Please Atari, I've worked
my tail off promoting your products - how about something to put me back
on the path of the Atari faithful before I lose all faith in "power without
the price".
