I am trying to decide on whether or not to buy an Atari 5200 and I have
a few questions.  I would appreciate any replies as soon as possible
as I have to decide before the end of the week (rebate ends).
Later replies also ok to help confirm my decision.
I will post a summary if I get enough response.
(I already own a 2600).

1) My main concern is whether or not anything markedly better will be
   available for the home market in the near future.  Anybody know
   of any developments.  I would guess not given that the video game
   market has died down a little.

2) Are the games for home computers (TI, C64, etc) much better than those
   for the 5200 (graphics, sound, etc) ?  Good enough to warrant the
   extra bucks for each game plus the extra bucks to buy the computer
   itself?

3) I have eliminated Colecovision and Intellivision II.  Should I have?
   Colecovision because it appears to be on par with the 5200 and Coleco
   eventually makes all their games for the 5200 but I don't think
   5200 games can be played on Colecovision.
   Intellivision somewhat arbitrarily because they seem to be at the end of
   the pack (don't know much about it).
