It might be, but I'll be back mid October for 20 years since my little Sister died also from Melanoma.

Mother, and sister? You had best stay out of the sun, might want to consider wearing SPF 10000000 even while indoors.
Sorry to hear of your looses, terrible way to pass.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Anyone here following the progress of the new Atari[^] game machine?
Anyone looking to purchase one?
I put myself onto the waiting list!
On the site they say,
Killer Atari Classic Games. Hot New Indie Titles. Open Linux OS.
Join the Revolution.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Looking into my shelf, I see a Atari 400, 2 600XL, an 800XL, 2 1040 ST and a Mega STE. Enough old Ataris to play with.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I only have an Atari 600 XL and a 1040 ST, and for the 600 XL I only have 2 cartridges: Chess and "Star Raiders"

Star Raiders is a great old game. If you want more, you can download entire libraries of disk images for the 8 bit and 16 bit Ataris. The real problem is attaching old 5.25 and 3.5 disk drives to a PC and actually format the disks and write away the images.
Anyway, here you can get some stuff: The World's Finest Atari Database : games, demos, utilities for 2600, 5200, 400, 800, xl, xe, st and falcon[^]
As an alternative you might get yourself some more modern replacement for the disk drives which is based on SD memory cards or some other kind of flash memory.

Thanks for the link, if only I was younger then ...

The first step is to stop thinking about ow old you are and what others may or may not expect you to do. Pirates don't care very much about such things.

Is that your version of 'talk to the hand'?

No, more like saying that parts of my body doesn't necessarily stop thinking about how old I am just because I do.

I'm feeling so much better already

Nice, but I don't think I will order one as you can play old games on your PC with an emulator too
Besides I'm getting too old for gaming
