> I am mystified as to why it appeared to have eclipsed the Ataris.
Because there weren't any Ataris to speak of in Europe, until the ST came along. And only musicians and studio owners had an Atari ST (or Falcon) - at home, people had gone from C64 to Amiga.
And, before the C64, the Phillips VideoPac G7000 (that's Magnavox Odyssey 2 to you) was everywhere - not an Atari 2600 in sight.
