I think that are probably wrong. I read last week that Jack T was seeking
50 million in financing. Apparently the machines has already been designed.
If he managed to find cheap labor and facilities abroad he can likely
begin production. Let's give him a chance. It is far better to encourage
people in their business/financial endeavors than to label them
failures before startings. I hope the ATARI company succeeds.
