That would be an Atari 2600,
then theirs been: - a comondore 64,
- an Atari 520 ST (did all my school work and coursework on that which was fun as some of it needed columns and stuff and you had to define them manually for practially each line as you went along),
- some crap from Time running a P2 (win 95),
- another one from Time running a P3 (win 98) (this one blew up),
- a build it yourself jobby running win 2k with an AMD Athlon XP,
- a temporary lappy (Advent something or other, P4 processor, win xp),
- my new shiny PC I got yesterday Which is a compaq 1905 with an AMD Processor (I don't like Intels).
Planned new PC for Autumn 2006/Spring 2007
AMD dual-core
1.2TB HDD
4GB RAM
?400 worth of sound
?400 worh of graphics
32" TFT monitor
All software as professional versions (Can't be doing with home editions, they are usless)
Price = approx ?3k
Thinking about it, I first got interested in programming back at the ripe old ae of 12 on the Atari ST (520 not 1024) and used a programme called BASIC to write silly little scripts that did boxes and made beeps when you clicked things. Gosh that's a long time ago!

I really liked the Atari 520 ST. I still have my old Atari 800,800xl (with about 500 floppies, tape drive, printer, 1400 modem, and two floppy drives) and my 2600 (joysticks are broken :( )with 100 cartridge games. Yeah, I'm a packrat... :rolleyes:
I had an Adam computer too in the late 80's, that thing was cool! I used to play space ace on it... LOL
