Re: Favourite Atari games

Thank You! <br>Actually, I have a large amount of
the games on cartridge and also on disk. I am now
working on collecting my favorites on my PC. I have a
couple of emulators running. I now like AtariWin, I
think it is up to 3.0 now. They have done a lot. There
is also the DOS version of Atari800 which does a
really good job with a DOS2.0-like GUI. They have a new
version too 1.0, I think. This is a great improvement
over the old one as it has a faster interface now (or
is it my computer? I can't tell!). I am very happy
with the progression that the Atari-8-bit emulator
scene has gone through in the past 4 years. I first
discovered the 800 emulator for sale in the back of Frog
Computers Catalog. Now that there are free emus out there,
I am still overjoyed and amazed that these
wonderful feats of technology allow me to enjoy games I
played 18 years ago! <br>Rock on, Atari!<br><br>-Sixosix
