Is there a way to exclude several words from a search that includes several keywords? For example, in a search for "2600 Choplifter" how would I exclude messages that contained "7800" and "5200"?

There seems to be an actual Atari part number of CX26124 for the Atari 2600 Choplifter cartridge. Is this accurate information or only someone being creative?

I am looking for any messages that talk about Choplifter specifically for the 2600. I understand this title was never released for the 2600 and was wondering if there are any known prototypes. But, I am also new here and would like a quick lesson on forum searching

Where can I find information on searching the forums effectively? I looked in the FAQ and there is nothing there. On the Search page there is only a short paragraph that talks about using "AND" "OR" "NOT" and "*" However, I cannot get the results I desire. Do I need to actually type "AND" between two words that I would like to require or do I need to type "AND" before both the words. Or should I be typing a "+" in front of desired keywords, similar to google.com? What if I would like to do a search for "Choplifter" AND "2600" but NOT "5200" and NOT "7800"? When I try this type of search, I end up with messages that also contain "5200" and "7800" rather than vice versa. Are there any other parameters that can be used besides the ones mentioned already? How about exact phrases? Please point me where I can find this help or post here. Thank you!

Awesome! This site is so well organized and graphically appealing that I would not want the best most comprehensive 8-bit rarity list to be anywhere else - then I would have to visit two different sites. There is no well-organized and maintained 8-bit graphical rarity list anywhere that I have found on the web. All I have found is text lists and considerably incomplete works. I am sure once the 8-bit section is up and running, the traffic to this website will increase dramatically. I am always trying to search on google for detailed Atari 8-bit information, but its not all organized in one spot. There are decent museums of the hardware, lists of known 8-bit software and some scans scattered about, but nothing as high quality and professional as the sections maintained here. The only thing I would like to see here is an estimated or ebay historical averaged value for software and hardware. That would be extremely interesting! Thank you for the wonderful website!
