You can still buy a copy of Office... Or you can go with the subscription. Office 2019 is currently available and 2021 coming out... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/tech...unces-office-2021-and-office-ltsc/ar-BB1dPs2w

It looks like either the tides have shifted or I misunderstood that 2019 was not intended to be the final stand-alone office release.

Once again, INGO delivers and proves me wrong.

You arent wrong. We were told as per our EA, 2016 was the final perpetual retail license that had a disk based installer. 2019 was available perpetually, but using the same download on demand with a central licensing/distribution server in your network.(e.g. Office 365 but private) No retail pack.

INGO made me wrong twice! Dang it!

Hummm... I wonder if enough retail customers turned their backs that they had to re-think that one in a market full of decent free alternatives? These guys getting off these money squeezing subscriptions everywhere would be really nice.

There's a difference between Click 2 Run vs MSI, and the need for a subscription.

If Asteroids, Ms. Pac Man, and Combat are all new to you, not only are you in the right place, you're in for a great time.

Just need to find Yar's Revenge and Breakout (and the paddles, of course) and you're ready to go.

I remember having one of these, as well as playing the floor model at the local Sears as a kid... yeah, I'm that old.

Actually owned a dedicated Pong game for the TV before this

We still have ours. At my prior house I had the wiring setup so I could plug the Atari into the wall and interrupt the Coax cable so I didn't have to dig around behind the TV every time I wanted to dig it out and play.

I admit I spent more time doing the wiring than I ever did playing the Atari.

The wife got me the "Retro" Atari a few years back. Came with a ton of preloaded games. The girls like Combat and Frogger.

I have that on Xbox. Buddy bought it and kept trying to get me to get it so I did. We played it once together and he hasn’t been on since. I haven’t played it since that day.

From the cover art, it looks like you guys are playing @Bigtanker job?



I do admit... the trailers do make that game look pretty awesome. But, I also admit, I would have liked to have driven truck for a few years when I was younger.

I said "for a couple of years". I don't think I could take it for a whole career.

I have actually driven "big" trucks before, but on a closed course. It is as fun as you think it is, at least for a few hours.

Ya I’d imagine after a while I’d be like I am on video games when I get bored. Just mash the gas and see how far we make it.
