   Fortunately my wife understands that Atari was my first love, so while   
   she does suggest culling things now and then, she actually prevents me   
   from getting rid of some stuff sometimes.  (Why I still have   
   an Atari 2600 TV Paddle Games.)   
      
   Right now, though, mostly because of our baby, my Atari computer is   
   living inside a drawer under the TV.  And mostly it's the baby's poking   
   at things that prevents me from using it much right now.  When he grows up   
   a bit, and can actually enjoy video games (more than the amazingly fun   
   power switch), I think he and I will both enjoy all my old toys. :)   
      
      
   BTW - There was an article in some magazine recently about how men need   
   their "man cave" in their home... be it the underground bar and pool room,   
   or the computer dungeon, or the workshop in the garage.  I guess my 'man cave'   
   is my laptop + local coffee shop, for now. :)
