atariST

(Machine, Germany)

Even though Atari may be an american company, I got mine in München, so german it is.

Didn't use it for too long - got it in january 1988 and used it for pretty much everything until about 1991, when I had a more or less permanent PC from DBA at home. Then there just wasn't enough room for it.

Of course I rewrote the solitaire for GfA Basic (probably the best dialect I ever saw, procedural programming can't do better than that). Tried some assembler but didn't get far, the syntax was ass backwards from Z80 and VAX so I just gave up, life is too short for that. Tried C as well, but just loading various pieces took too long - my total memory was one 720K floppy.
