   Ok, You or Joel.   
      
   As for revenge, come on. How about you guys pool together and buy Atari. If   
   they go bankrupt, it might be had for $25 million if all you want is the IP   
   rights of all Atari hw products, Atari name and buy the Atari software   
   copyrights for all of the "Atari" software. Except some of the new titles   
   that Infogrames folks can keep. The classic Atari titles and the titles   
   throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s from the Bushnell & Tramiel era and their   
   related trademarks.   
      
   If Bushnell came back into the fray to assist financially then great. We   
   don't know but maybe even Bill Gates can possibly put some financial   
   interest but the ideal to keep Atari seperate. However, this can be a tricky   
   deal. There are others with money that can pool together to make such things   
   happen. Keep in mind that the brand has value immortalized through legendary   
   status and history. Atari has an infinite lives cheat code - (it's critical   
   part in the history of the video game history).
