Sauron. thanks for that bit of info. I was not aware of all what was going on and am sick thinking that there are people that are so toxic to the community... hell I've watched some of his Jaguar reviews in the past (wasn't overly impressed) but didn't know that he's a scumbag. As posted in the topic link you sent, it's unfortunate the reputable writers will suffer due to Kierens involvement. So looks like I'll be combing the AtariAge store as my birthday present to myself... there's still a lot of things I want to get there.. the only problem is.. what should I get this time around? Again, thanks for the heads up. CK

While watching PushingupRoses last night, I saw a video about "The Art of Point-and-Click Adventure Games" by Bitmap books. Looking over their website, I came across a pre-order for "Atari 2600/7800: a visual compendium." Looks like I'm getting a new book for my birthday ? Atari 2600/7800: a visual compendium

I've missed the last two (or three) runs of this. Is there plan to run these two again?

No Richard Simmons? ?

After three years of waiting for it to be in stock, I was finally able to order this!! ?

This is absolutely beautiful!!!

I've woken up many times and wondered why I'm putting so much time and money into collecting. Then I buy another game or system and feel better about it

It seems this board is down?

Same here. Mailing list or anything for updates?

Today (or maybe it was really late last night) I bought a copy of "Driving Crazy" from the AtariAge store

It came in the mail today. Clean working great, two games with it with overlays and everything. And all for less than $60 Very very very happy with it! Thank you all for your advice and insight! Please keep 'em coming. Got a lot of interesting games I need to get. I'm looking forward to hours of fun on yet another system.

I'll donate after payday

I made the plunge and grabbed one off eBay this morning. ?

Well first, thank you for your service. Though I've never owned an Intellivision, it's very painful to hear that the system suffered such a terrible fate. If they're built anything like the 2600, it would be working like it's brand new today if it were still around. Very very painful

Good afternoon (at least here anyway.) I've been collecting Atari consoles (and computers) for a few years now. I've been looking at expanding my collecting at an Intellivision (and ColecoVision.. but one at a time.) To All the InTv collectors here, what do you like most about the system? What do you like least? Is there anything I should look out for when purchasing a system or collecting for it? (I know I could google some of that, but figured I'd get more accurate and truthful answers here.) Thanks!

You can kill the snake?

Express BBS is what I'm looking at.

I ran into this a few years ago. We had a big storm that spawned a few tornadoes and lost power for 3 or 4 days. Went to stay with my sister and her family.. however they had to work that weekend.. and without anything else to do found it on Youtube. watched it over the course or two days. A couple years later, I got stuck working a security account over night (sitting in my car the entire shift), hooked up the tablet to the WiFi and watched it all the way through in one sitting. I came into the scene rather late (early part of the mid 90's) but it still brought up some good old nostalgia. I would call a couple of the local boards. And since my parents didn't want me meeting any of those "crazy computer people," I snuck out to some of the meet ups. I dreamed of running my own BBS though after the popularity of the internet exploded, I thought it was a lost dream. Watching the BBS Documentary got me into wondering if any of the boards were still around. I was very excited to see many many boards were around and accessible via telnet. So I opened my own, the Black Sun BBS. Looking for more of a challenge, I am sitting with two (soon to be three) Atari 8-bit computers and planning on which one to switch my board to.
