  GRATS! and welcome to the family The company is just now starting to act like it should, these are good times for Atari I hope they last. I have been with Atari for 4 years and Atari has seen some tough times, hopefully those are in the past and we can get back to making good games.
  
  Pogonip, most people under 18 give you a blank stare when you toss out the name Atari. Those who know the name, say stuff like "Atari!? like pac-man? Are they still around? Is pac man even for sale any more? Can you get me a AV adapter for my 2600"

(good pay and benefits)

  Didn’t todays Atari just buy the trademark from the guys that used to own it? I mean that Atari today doesn’t really have anything to do with the old computers and consoles etc.
  
  Anyway. Don’t mean to rain on your parade.=)
  Congrats on the Job Foe.

  Palm - Infogrames bought all of Atari's IP including their name, and eventually decided to switch from 'Infogrames' to 'Atari' because only frenchies like Pior can properly say 'Infogrames.'

  Paradigm is in Carrolton Texas, basically a suburb of Dallas so no moving for me just a 45 minute commute.

  Foehammer, congrats on the gig. If you meet my old coder buddy Eric Best when you get there, tell him John Zero says hi. Sounds like things are looking up for Paradigm!
