>Since Amiga is retro and I'm an active Retro Computer Collector, I was pondering what kinda Systems People on Amiga.org have.

>Here is my little collection:

Conspicuous by it's absence in many people's lists is the Atari 800.  Sold around the same time as Apple, it clearly had better hardware (audio/sprites/gr.modes/etc) and almost 2X the CPU speed of it's competitors Apple/Vic/C64.  For marketing reasons people seem to buy Apples/C64s more although Atari would run circles around them when compared at the hardware level.  Some of it's software still quite unique and never ported to PC.

I have bunch of Atari 8-bits and Amigas and a C64.
