Any Interest in a new SDrive NUXX Run?
Pilsner73 replied to c0nsumer's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
I would be interested depending on price also. -
The slim already has the 250gb unit. So look for some xbox 360 components for sale on here soon.

Thanks for the answers I was thinking it would be to part it out also.

I have an Xbox 360 elite console that is giving the e74 one red light error. I tried taking it apart and fixing the 360 by applying new thermal past to the chips and putting the heat sinks back. I guess this thing has an issue that can't be fixed by the usual tricks unless someone knows another thing to try. I decided to get a new 360 slim anyways since my xbox 360 was out of warranty but am wondering Now my questions are: 1) Send back to microsoft to fix and pay the fee, get it back and sell as used or keep as back up? 2) Sell the Xbox 360 elite and if so is it better to sell as one unit, or part it out (dvd, power supply, console, 120gb hard drive) for better change of selling at a higher value? Thanks!

Atari and Microsoft and the ST
Pilsner73 replied to carmel_andrews's topic in Atari ST/TT/Falcon Computers
The Commodore Amiga sound chip was great for the mid 80s but I really think the Amiga was starting to show it's age by the mid 90s. Didn't commodore go bankrupt around 1994 or so? Yeah the people adopting PC over the amiga in the mid 90s for games and productivity software were the losers. The Amiga was a great system but thanks to Commodore sitting on the tech for so long, by 1995 PC computers and video game consoles were finally surpassing the Amiga. What IF commodore had not gone bankrupt and upgraded the Amiga chipset who knows, but Commodore went under and the Amiga lost what major software house support it had. Atari with the Falcon 030 was too late to the game also though the Falcon030 was a major upgrade of the ST tech just a bit late to the party. -

I was starting to worry about my order and not hearing back to my emails, so I decided to start this thread hoping someone else in the community might have some information. Knowing that a lot of the remaining Atari dealers are run by a few individuals or even a one person show, things do come to halt at times due to circumstances out of their control. So thanks to everyone for advising to stick with things and Sal for getting back to me. Latest update is that I got a tracking number today and look forward to getting my power supply.

I hope you get your order soon, as for mine I hope it's on the way also since it's been about 4 weeks since I ordered. I Apologize for the late orders as I have Been getting ready for a show and I was sick again for a short period (Nothing like last time though). All Orders that have not been shipped are getting shipped and will go out Monday. Sorry for the delay but I am a one man operation. <Whew!> I'm also moving a little slower because of some recent changes with my diabetes. Hang in there guys. they're on the way! =) Thanks for the update and hope things are getting better for you healthwise. I just was getting a bit worried since I hadn't heard anything for awhile. Glad it will ship tomorrow and if you could send me a tracking number once it ships that would be great!

Thanks for the responses. The power supply order is not urgent to have it just wondering what the order status is. I'm just trying to make sure the order is in process and that it will be filled. I know they told me it would ship on 5/31/11 and maybe they did ship it and it's being held up or even lost, then I would like to find out what's going on. I think two emails this week and a voicemail left this week is plenty persistent, hopefully I'll hear from them before too long. I waited this long to even start worrying about the order and no contact to even post about it so I can wait a bit longer.

Has anyone heard from Kjmann's Sales and Service recently? The reason I ask is back in May on the 17th I placed an order for an evolution power supply from KJmann's Sales and Service (http://atari-sales.com/store/frames.html). After not hearing anything or receiving the product I emailed them and was told the power supply would ship out on may 31st. As of the writing of this I haven't received anything from them. I emailed earlier this week and then again today with no responses. I called the number and left a message today but as of yet no response. Before I go any further with this I thought I'd ask if anyone has dealt with them recently or heard of a reason they may not have shipped product and/or not being able to be reached. I feel I have been patient waiting for product but with no product and contact I'm nearing the end of my patience. I am willing to wait a bit more if I can just get an update on what's going on.

Thanks for the education on Cache but I guess what I meant to say is cache always helped to when memory was expensive already and high speed memory was even more so a bit of high speed cache memory usually gave a nice performance bonus. As to the ST/Amiga at least in the USA by 1993 or so most people had either left those two consoles for the newest dedicated game machines or the latest 486/Pentium technology. With the latest bus tech, new processors, video cards, sound cards the PC gaming experience was becoming quite good and a lot of publishers were leaving the other computers (amiga/st, old 8bits) to write games for the new PC computers. As for Windows both 3.x and 95, you still could use Dos boot disks to play the games without any Windows issues. The consoles in the mid 1990s at least in the US imo were lacking in good flight combat sims, RTS, and first person shooters. I was never big into mario/sonic games, fighting games like street fighter/mortal combat even though a lot of people enjoyed those games and felt they were great I just enjoyed different genre of games and the PC world had the most/best games IMO for that. -
Atari and Microsoft and the ST

I'm pretty much just an observer of this thread, but I wanted to ask if anybody actually had a 20MHz 286? I wanted one, badly, but I was never able to locate one (a motherboard to swap in). The 16Mhz was VERY common, and that's what I had. It was a nice, capable system for the time. But 20MHz - anybody actually have one? I suppose the 386SX was priced so low they took over before the fastest 286s had time to get popular. If you had the 386SX with the 32k cache, it was SIGNIFICANTLY faster than the majority of 386SX systems that did not have a cache; 32k cache sounds so laughable but it seemed to work back then. My gosh, just remembering this time for a moment makes me recall how expensive a full-blown 386DX was back in those days! Heck the 68000 16mhz accelerators for the ST line really didn't run externally at 16mhz but because of the cache they used almost everything was sped up to some degree. Cache was a great thing. -
The emulator is good idea, as for the rom-card I might check into that. As to Games where's a good place to purchase from other than Ebay and AA marketplace that has good prices. I'm not so picky if the games are unboxed if the price is right.

Getting back into the Lynx and have some questions - Recently got a Lynx II with carrying cases, ac adapter, car adapter and these games: Turbo Sub Paperboy Xybots Warbirds Rampage California Games I remember enjoying chips challenge, blue lighting back in the day but what other games should I check out be it homebrew or old releases. Also any accessories I should check out? Is there anything like the Harmony Cart?

Are the bit wars really dead.
Pilsner73 replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I think the bit wars are dead per se, I doubt most people even know what bits their 360/PS3/Wii are at. Seems they more care about the movie like experience (HD, 3D, surround sound) and live motion interface. -
OK got a 130xe box
