tjlazer Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I am looking for the Atari PC1 IBM PC/XT compatible. Main unit and keyboard. Someone has to have one for sale... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+poobah Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Been looking for one of those myself. Havent seen one for sale in years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The Atari PC4 or PC5 (whatever) is the badass! Respectable 286 machine that I'm surprised wasn't more popular. How about one of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+poobah Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 The PC-1 was in the MegaST case. The other Atari PCs were more like generic screwdriver shop systems with Atari stickers on them. (I'd still take one tho!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliecron Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I think I probably sold the last one of these, to a collector in Japan, about 2 years ago. Haven't seen one for sale since. I do have one myself, but not for sale sorry. The best advise I can give is to watch the German ebay. This is the only place I have seen them for sale.

jaybird3rd Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 The PC-1 was in the MegaST case. The other Atari PCs were more like generic screwdriver shop systems with Atari stickers on them. (I'd still take one tho!) I have an Atari PC-4 computer, missing the keyboard and mouse but more or less complete otherwise, and surprisingly, it isn't quite as generic as a computer that would have come from a "screwdriver shop". The motherboard inside is an Atari-designed motherboard, and it includes some unique features: it has integrated VGA with both 15-pin analog and 9-pin digital monitor ports, and they also moved the DIN-5 keyboard port and one of the serial ports to the side of the machine, toward the front, to make it easier to plug in a keyboard and a serial mouse. There is also a connector on the back for an external floppy drive, and it looks the same as the floppy drive port on the Atari ST computers, so I assume that Atari's floppy drives will work on the PC-4 as well. (And yes, I'd love to have a PC-1 also. I've got a bunch of IBM PC games from Atarisoft, and I think a PC-1 would be the perfect machine for them. Plus, I love its "pizza box" design.)

If your ever thinking of selling it, I'd definately be interested. Just thought I'd put it out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
