From the older uncensored wikipedia entry for publisher Datamost:

    "The company was infamous for having sex workers as booth babes with the
    lecherous Captain Sticky at the 1983 CES show." (girls were billed as
    'The Stickettes')  "The company's HR manager was arrested
    on a pandering charge soon after.  The 'Game Glut' of 1984 caused the
    poorly managed firm to go under."

It goes without saying, Datamost offered the most generous fringe benefit
package in the industry.

And relatively little fringe...
