100% with you there.

Mind you I only have 3, perhaps just one or two more....

I've been wanting an 800 for soooo long!

My 800 was the first Atari I bought. Its now been Incognito'd up etc. Still my fave Atari too.

If I do ever get my hands on an 800, that'll likely be the way I go too, they are just fantastic looking and performing machines for their era.
