Good history. My father bought us the Atari 2600 VCS because it was supposed to have a keyboard upgrade to turn it into a computer. He was going to buy an Atari 800 but after the keyboard for the 2600 didn't come out, and he was in the Navy, he bought us a Commodore 64 because it cost less than the 800 and had more RAM. My friends had 8-bit Atari computers, and I had a C64, so I got a 300 Baud Vic-Modem and got on some local BBSes. Did you know the founder of Commodore bought out Atari after leaving Commodore, and Commodore bought out Amiga, which was supposed to be bought out by Atari? So Atari made the Atari ST line, and Commodore made the Amiga line. Both 16-Bit computers that competed with the Apple Macintosh and even had emulators to run Macintosh software.
