Don't get me wrong, I love my Atari, and I'd die for my 13OXE, but I'd like to know all your opinions on the subject. Did you use to own an 8-bit? What made you upgrade? What do you think is in store for the future of 8-bits and STs? I know there are a wealth of articles written on the subject (ANTIC, ANALOG, etc.), but hearing from you would really help. Responding to this note is OK, but email would be better. Thank you. Genghis c/o tle33710@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu University of Illinois at Urbana
