Like most tween crushes, the attraction was instant and overwhelming. I remember the first time I set eyes on the Atari Lynx as if it were yesterday. It was perched on a shelf, center stage, behind a huge pane of glass -- a window display in a branch of Dixons on Park Street, Bristol. There it sat, so near, yet (at about about £85/$100) so financially far. The Lynx didn't know I existed, even though I was just a few feet away. In my pre-teen mind it just felt unfair. My situation felt hopeless, which of course only fanned the flames of my forbidden desire even more.
