I have thought of USSR being a very attractive marketing place for Atari ST. The writer (don't remember his name) told that ATARI (the company) missed a big chance to make ST de facto in Soviet schools. That's sad. Has any one more information about this ? I can't see any reason why Atari still couldn't make it big in the USSR. If Atari is going into the American market in a big way in -90, why not USSR as well (competition shouldn't be too fierce :-). Just a thought. Any comments any one ? ! Markku M{enp{{ (jackin) !
