By the way, that wasn't a typo. Atari has been reborn. Hasbro bought all rights and properties with the Atari name from JTS in 1998 (JTS was a hard drive manufacturer run by the same family that had owned Atari since 1984, after buying it from Warner Communications, i.e. Warner Bros - their computer businesses had been folded, and the game console businesses (Lynx, Jaguar) were folded as well). Infogrames bought Hasbro Interactive (which not only included Atari, but the old Microprose as well) in 2001. On May 7, 2003, Infogrames, which had been around since 1983 renamed all operations except for the French parent firm into Atari.
So Atari is now 31 years old and going strong again!
