      He's entitled to his opinion, and I personally wouldn't doubt his expertise or knowledge. There is only one Nolan Bushnell! Cue Atari dance.

  4. Bye-bye, AVG Free Anti-virus. You used to be good, but now you're bloated nagware giving false alarms. Hello free Microsoft Security Essentials. Despite the "Microsoft" moniker, you're actually good!

      What? you mean there is free stuff that works. Used Mcafee for years, trouble is you have to keep upgrading your PC just to keep running the thing....

  5. So all of you who hate unions for destroying the company that made Twinkies want to support the companies' rights to pay shitty wages with no benefits whatsoever? I hope you get to enjoy that kind of world if the CEOs had their way and abolished all unions.

      Don't worry, Twinkies will be made in China next, at half the price...

  10. I have re-designed my website and am now hosting it on my own server. The site has many features including, but not limited to free downloads for the Atari, Gameboy, and more. You will also find fairly active tech blogs and forums. http://www.geekbasic.com

  12. Looks like Guardiola's quitting Barca. So, when the going gets a little rough ...

      This happens at the end of every season. Pep plays his cards close to his chest but if he does leave Barca he'll go knowing he achieved fantastic things. The team got complacent, but they'll be back.

  13. Is about to eat two polish sausages. Let the jokes begin!

  14. Corporate greed or monumental stupidity? In Bangor, North Wales, there was a GAME store until a few months ago. It was directly opposite a GameStation store. Found out last week that they're part of the same group of companies! Friggin' stupid or what? GAME has now gone bust. That's what you get for screwing me out of my preordered MW2 360 Elite. Karma's a bitch.

      I remember years ago we used to sell all new Amiga & ST games with 20%. Electronics Boutique turned up and they matched us. People started going there and as soon as we'd closed they made their prices full price...

  15. Finally showed who should have been the real finalists at the World Cup. Third Grand Slam for Wales in 8 years. This is stuff that made legends of the 70's players. Let's keep it up.

      Well done Wales, great game. Oh and well done England too against the Irish.

  17. Just found my dog at the side of the road, dead. Here he is in happier days, as I shall remember him: http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/194073-favourite-breed-of-dog/page__view__findpost__p__2465933

  18. Just spent 4 hours trying to get a Friesian stallion out of a ditch. Was touch and go for a while. Needed two sets of fire crew, including a specialist animal rescue team an hour away, plus additional 'helping hands' to eventually secure him, drag him out and force him to get back on his feet. Looks like he'll be okay now, though.
