First, thanks Roy for reporting the sales results.  I do not own Atari stock,
so I don't get the quarterly report.  This really doesn't answer the question
of how many of the various machines were sold, but that is a very questionable
number anyway since the only thing Atari could possibly report is how many
machines were shipped to distributors, not how many were actually sold.

My real question is in response to your last statement.  What was shown at
Comdex?  What new products are promised in early '89?  What is the timetable
for their release?  Any information you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...
