Hi all, quote:
ORIGINAL: Nikademus I held on to my vintage Atari 800 (The best friend in high school owned the Vic-20.....precursor to the C64) till the late 90's but eventually had to toss it when all the 5.25 diskettes began to finally go bad. Too much trouble to lug around. I regret it now of course, but then again today's TV's i don't think you can hook em up to any more. Besides which, emulators made it far more convienient.....except in one crucial way.....no joystick! Now if only i get get one (they sell out faster than they can make em!) i'll be in Atari heaven to which the GF unit cannot understand...she thinks late 90's graphics are ugly enough! 1982: Sinclair Spectrum 48K 1984: Commodore 64 1986: Atari ST (1 MB RAM) 1993: PC Leo "Apollo11"
