For the record, in 1986 Atari took out some major color two page ads
in TIME magazine (I wish they would do it again!)

Also, since November Atari has been advertsing the ST every week in
the New York Times and the results have been very impressive.  Where
there used to be only one dealer advertising and selling the ST there
are now FIVE, and two of them now run their own ST ads on a regular
basis.  The dealer I bought my Mega 2 from says that the machines are
flying out the door and he has been getting very steady shipments
that include every item he asks for - and that hasn't happened in years!
