I had an Amiga 1000 (the original) I wished I still had it! there were some really good games on it.

I had an Atari, but only because my friend had one and convinced me to get one instead of an Amiga. I can now say the Amiga was clearly the superior machine.

Neither - I was programming professionally at this stage, so could afford a PC.

Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

Ditto, except the 1024. So not really ditto. Well, except for the Atari bit. So Dit. I had saved up for ages to afford it, only to find that the delivery costs would mean waiting longer. So I drove round the M25 to Watford Electronics to pick it up on my motorcycle. Coming home with it and the monitor bungeed to the pillion was some adventure, I can tell you.

I upgraded mine so I could play The Secret of Monkey Island. The only problem was that the upgrade kit was a bit crap and ended up being slightly too tall for the case (as I remember it, it was a board that sat on top of the processor). So for the rest of my Atari ST days the case was slightly bowed and would rock back and forth on a flat surface.

Ian Shlasko

Never had an Amiga... Atari 800XL... From there, I moved to an IBM PS/2-25. Still have my old copy of the IBM Basic Handbook... The little book that started it all.

Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in? Developer, Author (Guardians of Xen)
