I would ask about legal SIO speeds and the 810, but there is a quinceanera going on. Migraine city... EDIT: That me in the 3rd pic @ the desk, head propped up on arm -

Yep, you never know when i might bid $500 on a broken MIO, or $1000 on an Atari in a knock-off foam case EDIT: Maybe we need a 'Please don't bid against me' thread... -
You guys are gonna get me banned...

Maybe I should start my own ebay thread. Then everyone can set me to 'ignore' and I can go on thinking you all love and care about me P.S. -

Sorry, I'm still wrapping my brain around this. Im transitioning from an Atari fanboy to actually understanding how this all works. This includes a simultaneous lobotomy involving a crash course in assembly for the 6502 AND learning how digital circuits function beyond logical operations (Vol 4 @ allaboutcircuits.com) Can I convince you to make a more legible schematic of your mod? My end goal is to make two 128k boards for slot one and two. Also how does using EXCEL impact other functions of the A800? Thanks! EDIT: Actually if i could figure out how to use the two Atari 64K ram modules with minimal modding would be great

It's an artist's interpretation of how the creativity and imagination that was necessary for early video games has been lost to sensory overload from spoonfed 3d cgi trash. One would have to read the instruction book and look at the artwork on the package to get a feel for the game. So this lone guy in his boxers is fighting the proverbial videogame boss who looks to be 'Ascending' to '3D' (as seen by his image separating into the primary colors R,G,B - much like an Anaglyph). The videogame boss first must destroy the princess of 8-bit. I thought it was fitting because some of the soundbytes and the ending animation of the boss being defeated goes to 16-bit, nes style 8-b, Atari 800 sidescroll 8-bit, then a final demise of the boss in pong form. I still like my PS3, but thats my take on it. *blows brains out*

Could a memory controller card be created for slot 3 that could use slots 1 & 2 for larger ram modules?
-
So the EXSEL line is connected to all ram slots, yet it isn't used?

An open letter to A8 Users: A new 8 bit era
fibrewire replied to Blues76's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Since this is the 'Speculation' stage, I suggest the wheel not be reinvented. Lets jump to the 'Buy It Online Right Now' stage, which is located here. -
An engineering joke that waits 30 years for the punchline? Make it good *Blows brains out*
