But I was always surrounded by friends with other systems, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amstrad_CPC">Amstrads</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philips_VG-8020">MSXes</a> during the 8-bit era, and Atari STs during the 16-bit years. We&rsquo;d obviously spend a lot of time fighting over each system&rsquo;s technical capabilities, oh the good old home computer religious wars, but I also have fond memories of playing games at their places, on their machines.</p>
