-
- Ability to do things fast enough so I don't have to wait all the time
- Nice Graphics (to support a decent image of 2 programs on the screen at
- once)
- Nice Sound
- A price tag that reads $cheap .. which I think all the atari owners will
- want.
- Available software to do the job.
- Available spare parts for servicing (something atari doesn't have here)
-
- Craig.
