Atari isn't doing so well lately and analysts have suggested that the company would do best to stop publishing games altogether.

I loved Atari, infact i was/am a Atari fan boy. I even got a Atari T-shirt that (if atari goes down) will be worth something too (i hope). Remember the masterpiece scifi movie BladeRunner, based on the novel: "Do Androids dream of electric sheep". In one of the (from the year 2010) street scenes there was a giant Atari neon sign hanging. I always hoped that atari would survive until 2010 in that way there would be one thing that is true to the 2010 setting of the movie.
