    memories

    Dug out some of my old (now getting to be very old) 8 bit gear

    I'm an Atari fan and i have a few

    800 with 64k ram
    600xl with 128k ram
    800xl with 64k and supermon
    800xl NTSC with 64k
    130xl with 128k

    Atari ST
    Commodore Amiga 512 (a 16bit designed by the guys that did the atari 8 bit but atari used another design so commodore snapped it up)

    stuff dates from the 1970s to the early 1980s

    dug em out, blew em out and low and behold they all still fire up

    sadly can not play my favorite game as the power supply for my disk drive unit has died...

    i'll get around that in time

    killed a few memory filled hours......

    I have an Atari 2600 game console in the garage. Do you want it? I think there are games with it.

    Back in the day, my favourite game was River Raid.
