griff3125 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Four of these guys just popped up on eBay(US). Just curious if it's a standard 1200xl? Or were the roms replaced to lock it down to something other? I found a video on youtube, show's what it is but they don't talk about the hardware... Any value in these (apart from being a beautiful 1200xl) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariGeezer Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 They appear to be missing the cartridge containing the program. If you look close at the left side, you see glue that held a cover plate over the cartridge port and joystick ports. The original ones covered up the promo-vision cartridge...

griff3125 Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 You're right, I did not see that, must have been an issue with people yanking the carts back then, interesting. I'm assuming these would work out of the box as a standard xl? Any additional hardware in these things? More memory or a 1400 motherboard? (it's a delusional long shot but I can dream).

NISMOPC Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I saw them too and was all excited until I read details here: These are missing cartridge and software disks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
