Gee.  I noticed that after Chris's profound comment on Atari stock ("Draw your
own conclusions") Atari stock must have gone up by a point!  It closed down at
well over 2 - if memory serves it was 2 3/8 (Chris mentioned, I believe 1 3/4?)

That means an increase of nearly 40% in one week!  Draw your own conclusions.

Proper conclusions should be that the stock market is fairly volatile at the
moment, that we are in a 'recession', that computer stocks aren't anywhere near
as interesting as oil futures, and that, since noone here is a bonded stock
market analyst/broker, we really haven't the faintest idea what is REALLY
happening.  I -could- be wrong about this last point -- Chris, if you're a
stock market analyst/broker let us know...
