<Eat red hot flaming joysticks, lineeater!>

Crismire hereby predicts that:

	a)	IF this wonderful new Atari hardware appears on dealer
		shelves anytime before Christmas, and
	b)	IF this wonderful new Atari hardware has a lower failure
		rate than the original-issue ADAMs, and
	c)	IF Atari isn't slapped with an anti-trust suit for selling
		this wonderful new Atari hardware at prices below what it
		costs to make them in order to blow out the competition, and
	d)	IF Atari lasts one month after the average dweeb can go out
		and buy any of this wonderful new Atari hardware,

			THEN

Crismire will walk to the nearest computer store,
Buy an IBM PC-AT,

And eat it.

	.rne.  [A good friend of Crismire who will probably not have to take
		Crismire to the hospital to have all that silicon pumped out
		of Crismire's stomach.]
