danwinslow #1 Posted July 20, 2005 I just picked up one of these...seems to work, and it seems to have the full CPM upgrade in it. Does anyone have any links to any information about these things? It has a bare rs232 edge connector and several other ports on the back, plus some SIO connectors. Supposedly you can hook up a dumb terminal to the serial port, but I am thrown off a bit by the edge connector deal, never seen that before. http://www.powow.com/oldatarian/atr8000.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Curt Vendel #3 Posted July 20, 2005 Oh... to use CP/M as long as it has 64K of ram it'll run CP/M 2.2 You'll need a terminal program called DT80 to make your Atari 800 act as a terminal to the ATR8000 in CP/M mode. And of course you'll need CP/M 2.2 Curt I just picked up one of these...seems to work, and it seems to have the full CPM upgrade in it.
