Atari reported net earnings of 5 cents a share for the most recent quarter.
From the brief summary in the Wall Street Journal, the quality of the earnings
looked a bit questionable, but the trend of improvement seems clear.  This is
not too surprising, given that in this quarter a year ago Atari had hardly
any product to sell.  

The only significance of this to ST users is that as long as the earnings stay
positive, Atari isn't about to be forced out of business.
