    Since the M in ATM stands for Machine, saying ATM Machine is redundant.

    There's an funny blog I just saw a link to a few days ago called The Comics Curmudgeon (joshreads.com) where every day the author takes a few of the daily comic strips and complains about how lame the are (usually in a genuinely funny way).

    I was curious to see what he thought of Dilbert and ran into this post concerning comic strips that have outlived their day (yes, Dilbert is one of them): http://joshreads.com/?p=924.

    The best paragraph was describing For Better or Worse: "Trapped between a huge, dim, slavishly-devoted audience and a self-satisfied, ham-handed Stalinist author, this strip is creatively as dead as they come. Yet it will run on and on as a Frankenstein's monster stitched up from Mike's mewling brats and zombies from the Good Old Days, glued up with glop from that 'novel.'"
