RobertSantellan Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Hello Everyone, I recently got an Atari 800 computer and it is missing the down arrow key. I have googled around a bit and have had no luck finding anyone that sells them, so a buddy of mine recommended asking if anyone here knew where I could get one. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

+DrVenkman Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Best has a $20 minimum order though, so pick out a few other things you want too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam242 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I've got a bad 800 keyboard that is slowly disappearing into other people's machines. You're in luck, I still have the down arrow (equals sign) key. PM me your address and I'd be happy to send it to you. The Atari 800 is a fantastic machine - I have three - and I'm glad to help someone complete theirs! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fixed this machine (memory and Pokey replaced) and now just the "key problem"... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam242 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 The XL series used five different keyboards from different manufacturers. I would need to know which one your computer has. There is a thread here that describes them, with photos. Do a search for 'XL keyboard variants' I think it's called. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"800XL" is different than "800", my fault But I don't know about various keyboards models from the XL. Thanks for support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
