  1. Anybody know of a script for Excel 2010 that will insert a : every two characters for an 8 digit MAC address?

      Actually, I had forgotten about INDERECT and LINE. Saw someone else use that once - can be very cool!

  2. I’m currently addicted to World of Warships Blitz. And it’s not even Atari!

      The Tank game is good. I think I like the warships game because of the restrictions. Turning a battleship is sort of the definition of something that is hard to turn, so you can’t just go in blind blazing. Kind of makes it fun.

  4. Last night played 2600, 8-bit, and then Jaguar. 1982 me would have been amazed.

      In 2018 I'm definitely amazed at how well built the early Atari stuff was, and how fun the games still are.

  5. Why do I have this forum open in 3 tabs?

  6. I'm making a dungeon crawler board game. I had actually started developing it 25 years ago and just discovered it again!

      That's really cool. Wish I still had some of those projects from my youth around!!

  7. VCF East was a success. There were approximately 50 people or so in the room, and it was video'd, so I am waiting for it to magically pop up onto youtube. I managed to squeeze about 2 hours of content down into 1 hour, without rushing or cutting off, which, surprised the hell out of me.

      Sounds great. Really wish I could have been there this year.

  8. Worlds of Wonder was founded by former Atari employees, and continued the Atari tradition of going out of business.

      Funny, I just dug out my old Dell Axim that has been sitting in a box for years. My daughter used to draw on it (back before tablets/etc) and she wanted to see if it looked like she remembered. I haven't tried charging it and powering it on, maybe I should.

  11. So excited to finally have a 5200. So bummed the controller buttons are nonresponsive

  12. What happens if you put two Alexas in the same room? Or maybe Siri, Alexa, and Cortana?

  13. I am absolutely blown away by Silpheed on the Sega CD! It's one of those rare games with graphics that make you go "How is this system even doing this!?", and it's a darn fun game to boot.

      Wow, you aren't kidding. Just checked out a video on Youtube. I have found memories of the MS-DOS version and this just blows it away.

  14. Added Rescue On Fractalus to my Atari 5200 collection; my Atari set for the 5200 is now complete! :)

  15. Playing Pheonix while listening to "U Can't Touch This" is quite amusing
