AT&T may (or may not) be missing an opportunity to gain a market advantage,
depending upon how easy it is to get the full range of tools for their
systems.

The easier it is, the more developers will do it, and the more 2nd source
software will be available for the AT&T machines.  The smaller the machine,
the wider the market, and the more important 2nd source software becomes to
potential buyers.
