Should we have an Atari section since we have Commodore?

RE: Atari section
If sufficient interest is declared here, I can consider it. I'm reluctant to add more sections when we're at over 300 members and there's already only very infrequent use of the secondary forums.
I'm the system admin of this site. Private security technician, licensed locksmith, hack of a c developer and vintage computer enthusiast. 

https://contrib.irixnet.org/raion/ -- contributions and pieces that I'm working on currently. 

https://codeberg.org/SolusRaion -- Code repos I control

Technical problems should be sent my way.

RE: Atari section
Why not just have home computer section, as it would cater many different systems without the need to make specific sections for every computer.

Sounds good..  I don't have an Atari btw.. I just felt it may have been left out.

RE: Atari section
I'd be in favour of a few groups for specific manufacturers where there is reasonable interest, then a "Other" section for anything else. Extra groups can always be added if a bunch of people suddenly get into Atari or whatever Smile

Home computer section seems to wide for me as you can speak about the last i7. I think that a 8bit/16bit section (can include the 32bits of Motorola 68k0XX) would be more suitable.

RE: Atari section
I never did get to fiddle with the old Atari computers. Only the usual 2600,5200,7800 consoles.
Also had an Odyssee 2 at grandmas.

We had the common Apple2 at my elementary school in 1982. So I played with those any chance I had.

Also had a commodore 64 like most kids in the 80s in the USA.

Then 286, later 386. Didn't have 486.
