Excuse me if this question doesn't belong in this newsgroup, or if it's been asked many times, but what would be a good game computer for purchase? My 3-year old likes my Macintosh, but it's not a good game machine, and I'd like to get him a system which runs Pac Man and Pole Position (especially in color--unheard of on the Mac!). Principal wish of mine would be a system with excellent graphics that I can plug into an RGB switch on a television set, and relatively cheap software. What is the best Atari for this purpose? Are the commodore 64's a better alternative? I've heard about the Atari 800 XL and the 5200 and 7800...which of these are best? Could a child simply plug in the cartridge game and play? Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me...I can't work at home anymore until I get another machine.... bill peter ihnp4!lanl!wkp
