I agree. I've just got into comms on my Atari and I must say that even
in the short time I've been here, things have already got so much
better. I use high end PC's every day at work and have a bit of Mac
experience also. All these machines do is make me appreciate the
strengths of my Falcon even more. It is easy, howeverto get caught in
the hype of the PC or Mac and think that the grass is greener over
there but after talking with some friends who joined the internet at
about the same time as I did, I quickly revised my opinions.
As seems to be par for the course, although there is a limited amount
of software available for Atari, what there is seems to be of a very
high quality. The help offered by the Atari on line community is also
second to none.
I would say stick with it but then I'm biased! :)
Cheers
