  1. Maybe ABBUC could look into offering payment of recurring memberships by using services like fastspring.com or memberful.com. When subscribing there, subscribers could use their credit card for their yearly membership fee.

  3. Just got an update from amazon in Germany about my delivery data for the Poster Collection. It'll arrive on July 14! Just in time for the family meeting at the beginning of August where I'll be giving one copy of the book to my brother. Geeeeez, we spend half of our childhood playing these games
  4. Just retrieved the first delivery, the Standard Edition, from my 'Packstation'. Couldn't wait for getting back home, so I opened the package in my car and what can I say, I LOVE IT . Half an hour later I decided I should drive home, it was way too cold to spend the whole evening in the car . On Saturday the Deluxe Edition is supposed to arrive, how can that one be even better? I decided to keep both of them and the SE will be my christmas gift to my brother. After all we spent so much time playing games on my Atari 2600 console back then. I'm sure he'll like it too, although he's not such an enthusiast as we are.
  5. I also just yesterday detected that the Deluxe Edition is available on amazon.de. The item title did not clearly indicate it, but it's mentioned in the item details and the photo. So I just ordered this one too in addition to the Standard Edition which I couldn't cancel anymore now, I was one day late, geez. And yes, 90EUR is clearly a rip-off over here. So the book better be good!
  6. Living in medieval Germany I won't get the book delivered until November 4 and the Deluxe Edition is nowhere to be seen for buying here around. So disappointed about this situation, but can't wait for delivery in about a week.
  7. Must be an exciting life for you, in permanent fear of being killed by your partner
  8. I'd like to get excited, but I still can't preorder the Deluxe Edition anywhere in Germany. They do list in on amazon.de, but it's not orderable (https://www.amazon.de/Art-Atari-Robert-V-Conte/dp/1524102113/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1473313889&sr=8-2&keywords=art+of+atari).
  9. The regular book was already available outside the US through Amazon. I hope the deluxe edition will be too soon.
  10. Oh, it's just a cartridge, without box and manual? Not that I would need a manual, but a box would be very nice in the shelf, wouldn't it?
  11. I'm about to cancel the preorder for the standard edition. Just waiting a little bit more to see if the deluxe edition will be available in Germany at all. This is a collector's dream!
  12. It's amazing which gems Kevin keeps digging out. I love it!
  13. I just preordered the book at Amazon DE. First time in a long time I'm looking forward to winter
  14. Effective immediately I'm no longer 'pac^man', but 'achtbits'. Name change done.

      Come on, you should know, that the correct name would be ms^pac^man.

      Is that Al or AI? Make sure it doesn't change it to a swear word.

  16. My username is going to change soon. I asked Al to to so.

      What's wrong with a to to? :P

  17. Great news! I hope I'll be able to preorder it in Amazon's german store too soon.
  18. I mean is it a technical issue or just a matter of finding the time to do so? Don't want to do finger pointing here.
  19. Just curious: what exactly is holding back a PAL release of the 1.06 BIOS?
  20. I also would like to ask again if there will be a PAL-50/60 1.06 BIOS release anytime soon? Thanks.
  21. It works for my RGB modded Atari 2600. Don't know about RBG
  22. Hi Al, I encountered two problems in my AtariAge store account: ​First I tried to update my account data for my AtariAge store account (not the forum account). I want to change my email address and phone number information. I filled all required fields (marked with red *). But when I press the 'Update' button I still get an error message that I need to fill all required fields, which I did. Please fill in all required fields. Is there a special format required for the phone number field? Second I tried to contact you via the Contact form, but this doesn't work either. It tells me I need to enter a Captcha, but there's none displayed. You did not enter the CAPTCHA correctly. Please try again. As a last resort for these two problems I write this forum post now... So, how can I change my email address in my AtariAge store account (not the forum account)? pac^man
  23. Ich werde in Oberhausen sein und bin gespannt, was es schönes neues altes zu sehen gibt
  24. More than 7 years later: Has there been any attempt do 'port' SQLite to A8 or try a similar project since 2007? Can't seem to find anything.
  25. The one linked in post 40 of this thread: #40
