The title sez it all.

I will keep my 1040 and 520 and likely use them for quite some time.  The 1040
is going to become dedicated to my MIDI setup where it makes no sense to go to
another system, but I'm now in the market for another computer and it won't be
an Atari.

All the slamming of Atari has gotten to the point of being funny to me.  I
really don't know if I want to buy a Falcon, although earlier this year I did
consider buying a Mega STe.  But I can't get my machines serviced locally, I
can't buy software locally and the selection of software today is probably as
good as it's going to ever be.  

I really like my ST and I hate clones but there is a clone in my future because
it's the mainstream and working on the fringes is just too much trouble these
days.  Windows, here I come, like it or not...
