Tramiel and many members of his staff have considered the 8-bit
machine, enhanced, as a competitor for the ST.  Also the Game
machine image of the ATARI 8-bits machines does not seem to warrant
any type of upgrade.  I have stated that i would support any
upgrades that ATARI would develope for the 8-bit.  Besides a little
criticism never hurts.  Tramiel does not take the 8-bit to seriously.
JWT and Landon Dyer are the most helpful people atari has on this
net.

Answer this question why did a ATARI try to block the release
of the PD 8-bit emulator for the ST????? Don't quote Propietary OS.
