Otherwise there's no way I can find enough Ataris fast enough.

Think this is a dumb idea? (I don't) But sound off anyway!

well, for those with Ataris, it's nothing big, but for those of us who would have to go find one, it'd be kind of a nuisance....of course, if someone is going to buy a Phoenix, I'd assume he/she either has an Atari or is a big enough Atari fan to know where to find one or to go get one without complaing :).
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

I have two on my hands right now (NOT FOR SALE!!!)... A 4-switch and a Taiwanise 6-switch. I also have an Atari 7800, which you could consider an upgraded 2600.

it sound like a core deposit, lots of companies do it it just usually companies that rebulid or remanufactuer cylinder heads engine blocks ect...so its not un common...not to mension you might get some california ataris out of it which well....would be kick ass, well worth the $10 discount
