theres been 5 on there since xmas. my problem is there's no games that really pushed it at all from what i can see. unlike SuperStardust on the STE (valient attempt of convertin the amiga game actually)

i do like em, but not 156 quids worth

Didn't Atari produce a PC type falcon as well, in a seperate base unit rather than based in a standard ST case?

I was always impressed by the number of colours it could do, but by the time it was released, other stuff was available and Atari's waggon had sailed and was kneecapped into oblivion.

thats the falcon 040. the 030 was allegedly rushed through in the st casing because there was hardly any money left outside of the jaguar project (yes i know big mistake!)

the follow up to the Mega STs honestly looked like one of the nicest machines ive ever seen from a design point of view
