I used to have an 800XL.

I might buy one of those retro game consoles.

Atari... Sadly, the ST and Mega systems that followed never were recognized for the powerful machines they were.

Atari had became synonymous with a game console when in reality they were building excellent systems for the time: advanced 68000 chip (used by Apple in the Mac for years to come), some of the best graphics and sound for the time.
