What is the Atari Manual for? What edition of system? Heavy Sixer, 4 woodgrain, vader? If its for the Vader I could use it!! PM me and let me know!

Before I get there, I took apart my CX-40 last night and gave it a facelift. I took the white plastic joystick out and poped out the plastic boot, and cleaned all the crud out of there and put it back together and now it looks all pretty again!!! Anyway!!!!! I was looking through my little "1983 Atari Catalog- Your Ticket To The Atari Stars" this morning and saw something I've never seen, or seen talked about in this forum. Says here, "2600 Voice Commander- State of the art game play with voice activated controles!" Has anyone ever seen or heard of these? Has anyone ever used them? If so, how do they work?

This is still a good way of thinking, even if it doesn't matter with the 5200. Some electronics have capacitors that can discharge even when they're unplugged. (I've heard of a few people being zapped by television repairs.) If you don't understand the electronics of a specific device and haven't gotten trustworthy advice from someone who does, steer clear of mixing your electronics with conductive liquids. Thank you jbanes!!

Well I do like Grand Theft Auto, but Im really into HERO right now. To bad I only have it on the emu! Asked for it for my birthday though, I think?

Im 13, gonna be 14 next month.

LOLOLOOLOLOLOL

Cool!! Good for you Chris!! And in case anyone wanted to know, I was helping clean out my grandmother-in-laws (lol) basement. It was in the corner all covered with crap. Sp I started to move things around and really got a good look at it. There were 15 games that were with it. So I moved it out to the garage and started cleaning it off. And there we go, thats how I met you guys on this board. If it wasnt for the Vader in her basement, I never would have know this site existed.

Oh sorry. Thanks Brian.

Maybe when you pulled it out of the box on Christmas morning? Maybe when you got it for your birthday? Well why did you pull it back out of the closet? hy did you decide do get into the world of Atari once again? Thought it would make a great question and conversasion.

What is a supercharger?

Even on the Eastern side to huh? Over here in Western MA, we have NADA!!!

Could someone explain what a supercharger is?

No, not that I know of. I think they just did the whole concrete thing from the start. Eathier way its a very odd turn of events.

Yeah Pac-Mans bad. But I just got used to it. Dont really play it any more.

lol

Ok. Just thought I should check before doing it again. Thanks Shawn.

Well yeah, well nevermind. Just thought I may mention it just for the hell of it.

O ok. Yeah make sure you let all the little holes and that stuff dry out. I have a funny story, one time when I didnt let it dry.......................well I'll save this for another time.

I ask this because I put my cart and manual in a small zipper top vinal/plastic bag to transport it this morning, and I stuck my hand in there and felt all the static electricty. Can this damage my/our carts in anyway?

I try to play everyday, but I get to lazy to unplug the cable, and screw on the adapter, I need to get one of those switchboxes that you plug the tv into and then the source and Atari. Can you get these at radio shack? How much are they?

Water on a motherboard? IMO, doesnt sound like a good idea. Just the thougth of electronics and water.

Gosh darn it!!

It just came to me. I was sitting here looking at my Spider Fighter cart. I thought maybe I could start a fan club. Someone would have to help me with newsletters, if we wanted to put one out. I really dont have any details yet. What could be done, if there was a perk to joining, just dont know yet. Let me know if you have any ideas or if you want to help me out. I know this is kind of odd, but I thought it would be a great idea, if we could get things ironed out.

Do you really think Im that stupid? Honastly? Inside joke. I know, just kidding. Armor All, who ever came up with that? Honastly, isnt that good for the plastic, if you get the right kind?

I downloaded the PB version on the emu and I like it just fine, but have never played the Starpath version. I thougth Id download it seeing I may be getting it for my birthday.
