It is all about the coolness factor. I think that is why everyone wants one. Otherwise why would anyone spend money on a Falcon/CT60,63 CTPCI, SuperVidel or EtherNAT. Its all to push that little Atari to its limits and see where these great machines could have gone. The Nature boys and Rodolphe Czuba among many other software and hardware developers deserve our support and should get it from the few remaining pioneers of the Atari Computer.
