What the fuck?

As far as gaming goes, first there was the Apple II. Then the C64, then the Atari ST and the motherfucking Amiga. Once IBM PC clones got Adlib, Sound Blaster, and VGA, DOS gaming shot off like a rocket and entered a golden age.

OP, go sit in the corner and think about what you've done.

I kinda feel bad my seven years old self didn't care about Amiga and Atari ST, it would have granted me a free shitposting pass against the fatties.
