NAKAMURA, OUR FEARLESS LEADER AND OWNER OF THE COMPANY THAT MOSTLY OWNS ATARI WILL BE HERE MONDAY AND TUESDAY 3/10-3/11. THERE ARE NO FIRM PLANS, BUT PLEASE PLAN ON TOURS ETC. Now, the Japanese are a traditional people and have a lot of ritual in their business affairs. Therefore, it would be courteous for us to tone down our western ways where appropriate. 1) Let's tidy up our labs and offices - if Rofo can do it, anybody can. 2) On Monday and Tuesday let's make an effort to dress conservatively in spite of the fanstatic weather we have been having. 3) Let's leave gym clothes in the locker room. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I'm proud of the Atari Engineering group and its product, and I want Nakamura be proud too...I don't want him to be distracted by the cultural differences and miss the product.
