I under stand what you are saying here, and gave it some thought when I first
saw it.. You could be correct, but then again what is a Jaguar really.. It is
not a computer by what we think of computers, but in the industry I think it
would class as one... When we think computer we think keyboard, ect.. But
there is no keyboard on the computer in your car, but it is a computer non
the less.. I really do not know what the true definition of a computer is,
but with PU's data buss, memory, multiple in puts and a vidio out put, I
would guess the Jaguar or any game console would class as a computer...
Or it could be that though Atari does not look at it's self a making
computers at this time, they still reserve the rights to...
I do not know anymore then anyone else, but I do know the TR has always been
very good for us for the last 8-12 years.. And have been rated good enough,
that they are valide for credit referances, ect...

FWIW.. I do find it extremely intersting, the info I posted about Atari from
the Thomas Register, was nothing more then the info any company or person can
access for reference, data, ect.. It really has no positive nor negitive
bearing on Atari..
But it sure the heck is intersting the number of people who have gone out of
their way to try and make it something negitive.. And now people are even
starting to slag the Thomas Register, by calling it names. ie look at the
Subject line of this message..
It is very obvious, there are many pros and cons about Atari, and many people
feel the same, there are those who are pro and those who are con.. Hey this
is fine, everyone is entitled to their own personal feelings.. But it is
really sad that some of you have to go out of their way to make something out
of nothing... And even more so, to try and make a very repitable company like
the Thomas Register, look bad, and now make fun of their name only because
they are doing what they are in business for is really bad...
_Really Really Sad_
