	Well, this is somewhat unfair to Atari.   The Atari that controls
the video game market is no longer the same company as the Atari that 
controls the ST series.  They are entirely separate entities.  So the problem 
at the moment is not one of incorrect advertising, but a lack of advertising.
You're right though, it doesn't help to have all those Atari game commercials 
around (even though they aren't related).
