er... what about 'loyalists' such as myself ? I possess a 400, an 800, 2
800 xl's, a 1050, an XC12, a 1027, an FX 80, an ST, an STe, a Falcon030
and a Jaguar...

the only real shift is that I mostly program the STe thesedays (and the bird
sometimes) whereas I used to use th 8-bit all the time... I now pull it out
for parties (4 player games! especially Asteroids, Fast mode, Bounce on :-)
rubble runners!) and the rare blast from the past... I've also got a vectrex
video console!

will that do for starters ?

oh, BTW, does anyone in the UK know if Page 6 (New Atari User) is still going
?

cheers
