A lot of people are also unaware of the amazing computers too (Atari 520/1040 STE, STF, Mega ST and the Falcon) running the TOS (OS) and the GEM (Windows like interface). I have so many good memories of those computers and played a lot of games on it.

I had several of them and started to actually code my very first games on an Atari 520 STE :) Using GFA Basic and the GEM with Windows and button when I was something like 10 years old.  I had one Mega ST at some point with a wooping 20MB hard drive and it was awesome at that time.

And here a picture of the Mega ST I had with the hard drive (20MB) which is the bottom box behind the keyboard...

Good old time :)

I would love to see Atari in the hardware game again. Crossing my fingers for something cool coming out.
