In 1986 we bought together (3 students) an Atari ST. It served us for quite some
time very well. Actually we all wrote our diploma/master thesis on it. Do you
remember "Signum"? We also bought a NEC 24 pins printer soon.

At some time, we were not going to live together anymore. One of us got the
computer and the printer. Soon later, she had more money, and bought herself
some Mac. Her brother received our Atari. Not much later, it was given to yet
another person. Last I heard (not too long ago), it still worked and was in use.
But the keyboard really was awful. I cannot remember how many times I took it
apart and cleaned it.

In nostalgica,
Dieter
