Sad to say I never owned an Atari. I was in fact extremely young when I (read: my older brother) got the Sega Master System. Intellivision my dad had got before I was born. Everything Playstation and on was my systems. Everything before that was technically my brother's. (I always got the second controller. ), but I eventually seized control of them after he got other hobbies.

Those PC's eventually got split up and used to improve other peoples' machines. It's horrific how many people have awfully slow and plain crap PC's in this day and age. I am talking about 10 year old hardware, one guy had ISA only slots!

*yawn* AMD fanboys will never learn. Intel is and always will be highly competitive. In fact, the latest and greatest quads coming out by AMD still don't compare with the Conroe core. ...AMD should have wasted their time and effort taking over ATI. They're falling behind. Sure, they'll be back up there, but anyone who really takes sides really has to look at the facts.Originally Posted by Nodtveidt
