I know that those machines failed but mayby that is why i collect them :-) but yes a falcon could be cool to have

Ha, I have an Atari Jaguar as well, and have always wanted a Falcon.  They were pricey when they came out, were very much like when the Amiga was first announced, with a lot of sweet features.  I've try looking up to see if I can get a hold of one every once in a while, but no one ever wants to part with them.  It's very much like Amiga users, they don't ever part with them, unless they decide to charge more than it'd cost to get a generic PC and emulate 'em. :(

I do need a Falcon and probably an A1200 with an A500 to round out my collection.  I don't have a C64, but I was never a fan (I did love the Atari 8-bits though, which really with Jay Miner being the father of that... it's probably more related to the Amiga anyhow)

On Topic;  I recall when it happened that everyone had said it was due to management going to the Bahamas all the time and spending the money frivolously.
