Ever since I got fired up about Wikipedia killing off old BBS door game articles, I've been looking through what's left of my old Atari files and stuff.
Today I came across a real gem: a textfile I wrote very early in my BBSing career (probably 1992) about why I loved Atari computers and still had hope for the company. As an added bonus, the textfile even gave me the date I started calling BBSes and a short story about who helped me get started (A local sysop who was also an officer of our ACE-St. Louis computer club).
I posted the textfile here: http://breakintochat.com/blog/2012/12/24/why-i-love-my-atari-computer/
Man, I wish things had gone differently with the Falcon and the Jaguar. Oh well, I always loved underdogs.
