I saved my paperboy money in 87 and 88 to get a home computer. I programmed trs-80's in school but I wanted something better. A friend's father had some atari computers so I bought a 400xl (400 but with memory expanded and a real keyboard) and a 600xl, but the 600xl was broken so he gave me an 800xl instead. Later I got a couple vic-20s c64s 64cs and amigas and pcs.
But the atari and commodore 8-bits will always be favorites.
