HI...I GUESS YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO ONE OF THESE HERE LETTERS TELLING WHY YOU'RE
LEAVING, COMPLAINING ABOUT SOMETHING, ETC.,ETC.

FRANKLY, I HAVE FOUND MOST OF THEM TO BE REALLY BORING AND VERY PRETENTIOUS, SO
I'LL TRY NOT TO BE.

IT IS TRUE I'M LEAVING, IT'S NOT TRUE THAT I HAVE SIGNED ON WITH THE CHICAGO 
BEARS AS A DEFENSIVE LINEMAN TO FILL THE VOID THAT WAS CREATED WHEN THEY MOVED
WILLIAM "REFRIGERATOR" PERRY TO RUNNING BACK.

ANYWAYS, I THINK I'M GOING AT A TIME WHEN ATARI HAS LOOKED BETTER THAN IT HAS
IN THE THREE YEARS SINCE I HAVE BEEN HERE...DEFINATELY FROM A PRODUCT
STANDPOINT...(NOT FROM A BEER BUST STANDPOINT THOUGH).

I'M GOING TO TRY MY HAND AT CONSUMER MARKETING IN THE SOFTWARE FIELD...CONSUMER
MARKETING IS SOMETHING I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO TRY, AND THE COMPANY, ELECTRONIC
ARTS, SEEMS LIKE A GOOD PLACE TO TRY IT OUT.  (I HOPE I DON'T END UP DRIVING
AROUND A MOBILE CAR WASH UNIT TO COMPANY PARKING LOTS, HOWEVER!)

I THINK YOU ARE ALL DOING WONDERFULL THINGS HERE THAT ARE VERY CREATIVE AND
ARE CLEARLY THE QUALITY LEADERS OF VIDEO GAME DESIGN IN THE WHOLE WORLD.  I 
HOPE I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE IN SOME WAY...I'LL MISS YOU ALL...

TO CLOSE, I'D LIKE TO SAY:

KEEP MAKING AWESOME GAMES (THAT I CAN LICENSE AT E/A!)

NEVER MAKE A GAME WHERE YOU RUN OVER DOLLAR SIGNS
AND...

WHY A BIG SUIT?


LATER DATES,
