Orange cart.
No idea if it currently works. It did when it was put away 10 years ago.
No manual.
-
I also found a copy of the book "Machine Language For Beginners" (Brown book by Compute!)
-
I just dug up a Mac/65 cart, a copy of Mapping the Atari and a manual for the original Atari assembler/editor.
Is this stuff worth anything? Anyone interested in it?

Atari Championship Sprint (1986) for sale. Working, in good condition with some average wear, espcially near the cabinet edges. Med-res monitor that is starting to compress a bit at the top but it still good (a cap kit would resolve this).
Asking $175 or trades (+/- cash) towards Sys11/WPC games/projects.

That's not the best way at all. I usually put the machine up on sawhorses so that there isn't any weight on the legs. They're simple to remove then, you can do it alone, and there is no risk of structural damage.
Well that works to. I am just thinking that he may not be taking a sawhorse over to the seller's place. He can get the seller to hold it for a couple of minutes while he takes off the legs (or vica versa).

Look here for tips.

The main difference is that your pinball's head does not fold down. You will have to open up the back, remove the connectors, shove the connectors in the body of the cabinet and loosen the 4 bolts on the bottom of the head to seperate the head from the body.
Another point is to rest the pinball on its back (after you remove the head) and remove all 4 legs. That way as you remove legs, the weight of the pinball machine does not have any load on the remaining legs. Make sense? The best way is get someone to hold up the back while you remove the two back legs. Then lower the back on the pinball to the floor and tilt it on its back to remove the other two legs. I wasn't paying attention once while someone was doing it for me and they started to loosen everything. I could hear the bolts ripping out of their threading on one leg!
In the end, you should have 4 legs, 1 head and 1 body all seperated. I sometimes make a not of what connector goes where but usually they are wired so you can put it in wrong. And with your machine being an older EM, there will only be a handful of connectors.
I usually put the backbox in the front seat with a seatbelt around it (the glass facing the seat and the back facing the windsheild). The backglass is probably the most fragile and hardest part to replace. Keep it in the safest spot.
And ... remember to remove the pinball(s) before moving. It can break things inside the pinball as you move it.

in Arcade and Pinball
Posted
Anyone know what the production run for the Asteroids cabarets were? I can't find the information. I did find out that they made 1,100 of the Ast. Dlx cabarets.
