Atari made game systems.
Atari also made home computers.
They even had a "home computer" division in addition to their gaming
division.
That's why I suggested that people might well consider an Atari a
computer (since their home computers said they were computers right on
the boxes!).
Nobody's smartphone comes in a box which calls it a computer.
