When I was in junior high I saved up money from my paper route and helped purchase my first computer, a high-end Atari 800. This machine was superior to the Vic 20, and on par with the Commodore 64. Heck, I actually preferred it to the Commodore line of products. Atari's version of Basic was easy to use and was fun to create programs, and even type in programs from magazines such as Antic.
After a year or two, my machine was fully expanded to 48k of memory with two floppy disk drives. Mmmmm that was the shiznik.
One of these days I'm going to pick me up a used machine to relive my childhood.
Check 'em out.
