   I had an ATARI 1040STf in 1986, with a NEC printer and a monochrome   
   display. Then I had a MegaSTe 4 in 1991. And a Falcon030+882 in 1993,   
   with a multisync EZIO display. Then in June 1996 I had an ATARI clone   
   called Hades060 from Medusa Computer Systems. It was the first TT clone   
   bought from France, and maybe bought in the world, I suspect.   
      
   So I'm really fond of ATARI computers, and enjoy celebrating 40th   
   anniversary of presentation, at date of Las Vegas CES in January 1985.   
      
   It would really be great if ATARI remembered its ATARI ST computer   
   users, like me, specially because I'm an ATARI developer, and that   
   I like sharing my GEM software, as widely as it used to be from 1986   
   to 1996, and later than this decade, with the worldwide internet.   
      
   Maybe the ATARI firm has projects around this quarantine? It's there!   
      
   Best regards,
