I remember when

Atari once sold the computer that was rated best buy by consumer magazines. What atari failed to do was advertise that fact. As a result, it never sold in great quantities. Atari can do some good things, but has failed by not doing all the things required to make it successful. Like building a car, it has to have 4 wheels, an engine, a frame, etc. You can't have a complete car without all the things that go into it. I hope the new CEO will give the same consideration to any products atari sells. You have to make it a complete product. BTW, atari, I was hoping the game "Axis and Allies" was going to play according to the board game and I was dissapointed. You failed to give a good description of the game play.
