Atari re-entering hardware business with mysterious 'Ataribox'

After so many years, Atari looks to me like an empty travelling label : not the same company, not the same people, no continuity, no legacy... just a label being sold and bought by Warner, JTS, Hasbro, Infogrames...<p>When people think of Atari, they recall Pong and other great games, the ST computer line... the current Atari company is not related to any of that: Nintendo, IBM or Apple ensured their continuity over time and may &quot;re-enter&quot; older markets.<p>Atari is not &quot;re-entering&quot; anything: Infogrames is just re-using an old mythic brand and intends to start a hardware business.

More likely to be a Steambox that can run Windows until SteamOS is finished.

Games console and mysterious - never a good combo
