- Well, I for myself do it because I like the Atari, and what I can
- do with it. But, not only that but, what's the fun of being part of the
- majority? It doesn't make you strive to be better, you already think you
- ARE better. I for one LOVE to say to all my friends wit PCs and Macs etc.
- when they start getting on bandwagons against my "lowly" ST, "Oh, an
- Off-Line Reader? Sure, I got one. DTP? Sure, I can do that. And when
- they say, "Yah, but mine's better and can do more!" I take him/her to my
- place and show them up!
