Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and I…

June 20, 2009 By: len Category: Re/|\ro No Comments →

…all cut our teeth on Atari computers. Steve Jobs quit his job at Atari to found Apple, Bill Gates was fired from Atari, and I played games on an Atari. Of the three, I’m probably the only one who still has a working Atari computer.

This article is a teaser for a future topic on DanvilleDelivery.com. I have a general interest in old computers and a passion for the Atari 8-bit computers. I have a few of these and still enjoy a quick game of River Raid or Bruce Lee from time to time.

I’m posting this here hoping someone with a box of Atari hardware will contact me before tossing it into a landfill. I’m not a collector, per se, but I have quite a collection. At the same time, I hope some former Friends of the Fugi will enjoy thumbing through an old issue of Antic or playing a once favorite game on an emulator.

If you are thinking about resurrecting an Atari computer or buying one, I’d be glad to help.
