I was wondering if you would help me... I'm doing my research paper for Rhetoric on the topic of the apparent demise of Atari 8-bits. Don't get me wrong, though: I'd die for my 13OXE! What I'd like to know is would you do the same. What are your opinions? Do you think Atari (at least the 8-bits) is a dead letter? Or is there enough support to keep our Ataris alive? Sure, there are alot of magazine articles out there, but I would appreciate hearing from you. I have no access to Compuserve or Genie, etc. So if this message could possibly get there, that would also be appreciated. Responses to this note are acceptable, but sending e-mail to my address would be better. Thank you! Genghis - c/o Tim Elliott at University of Illinois at Urbana email: tle33710@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu
