You know, speaking of Atari, that was my first computer ever. An Atari 1200XL, bought in 1982. I actually liked it better than the C64. It was much easier to create graphics and games on. Unfortunately, the Atari line flopped (like the Amiga) largely because people assumed they were only game systems and too expensive for that. It's ironic that the gaming and multimedia features these systems, particularly the Amiga, introduced are now the driving force of computers these days. :)

Level42:
Quite right, my first computer was a 600XL, because I had seen my uncle struggling with his C64 and ultra-slow floppy disk drives. I wouldn't call the Atari 8-bit series a flop though, it was rather succesfull in Europe, although not as succesfull as the C64.

A well, history shows that the "better" system always looses:
VHS-Beta & V2000
C64-Atari 8-bit
Windows-Mac

I've learned so much about computers from that first 8-bitter.... I still have a 130XE and a PAL 800(those are RARE !).

However, ZakMcKrakken was on the ST, not on the 8-bit series...
