I recently exhumed my Atari light sixer (pal-ita) purchased in Christmas '82 (one or two days before December 25th) to check its operation, after many years I noticed that under the power supply connector there is engraved this number: 231 (first image) What did the Atari factory want to point out? Maybe 23rd week of 81 or 31st week of '82? However, doing research on google, I only found this photo with the serial number engraved on the dashboard of a light sixer: 289 (second image) It can't never mean 89th week of 82! Perhaps, 1982 August 9? Except in 1989 they were still reconditioning the light sixers, these that have been out of production for about 8 years!! Another curiosity is: why they put such high serials on the stickers stuck under the light sixer pal, for example mine is: 549.266.031 (units manufactured?) I await the comments of the great connoisseurs, possibly those who worked in the Atari factory in those years and who are now registered in this forum ...

I got to try just today. Gyruss (MyIDE patched).rom it's working with My IDE II fat 32 loader. But does not working with SIO2SD (It's normal because this peripherial does not support *.rom files) Thanks again to everybody answared me!

Many thanks to Gunstar, erichenneke, ProWizard, CharlieChaplin for gave me information, you have been very kind, tomorrow I will try directly CC's rom shared, (Although is not allowed to share these roms in the forum, he did it for me , is recommended to share these in p.m.) now I'm very tired! Good evening!

Hi forum's members. I have an Atari 800 XL and I use The ATARIMAX MyIDE II with FAT32 Loader, Thi cartridge should supports all file.xxx included *.rom and *.com. But is strange that Gyruss.rom is working in Atari 800 emulator for pc, but it does not work in my real Atari 800 xl through My ide cartridge (Gyruss.atr i also tried)!!! Is it a firmware cartridge update matter, or is there a different particulary Gyruss roms that I have not found in internet? Thanks in advice.
