Is There a Release Date for the 7800 XM Yet?

[AtarinDave]

Hey, guys, I've been wondering, is there a release date for the new Atari 7800 expansion module yet?

Nope. Go to the top of the forum to the pinned thread titled XM UPDATE to find out whats going on.

How is the weather where your from rain today?

The last official word was "this spring, no more delays, no exceptions,"

So sometime between today and June 20, 2015.

 

Give a week or so for shipping etc, and I figure there's no need for the pitchforks etc until July.

You could always read a book while you're waiting.

Everyone's been good here, the snark has so far been absent from this thread.

And, dammit, it's really KILLING me to behave! Everyone should appreciate my sacrifice.

Hehe! Was that a referral hijack? If so, nice work!

[Master Phruby]

Good job on that referral. Good book!

No static here just stating the obvious. We been thru this b4 several times nothing new. Lets just stay positive and go for a late spring summer fall still all good feel.

"When it's done" is the best answer. I know they delayed the followup atari book in favor of the XM. And Curt has been doing more updates of late, and he has other team members actively working on finalizing things. I'd be surprised if it isn't in our hands before the end of the year.

Overheard at a Backyard Cookout

 

Dumbass Kid: "That was before my time. Who is Steamy Dam?"

 

Crusty Old AtariAge Guy: "Look down at that smart phone that never leaves your hand. What am I saying? You're always looking down at it. You can use that thing for more than texting and FaceTweeting."

 

Dumbass Kid: "You want me to use Google to learn stuff? Lamoring! (In case you don't know, that's lame and boring, grandpa poopie-pants.)"

 

Crusty Old AtariAge Guy: "Never insult the guy who is cooking your hamburger."
