AtariGeezer Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 And, just to end my weekend on a high note..... score! $_57.JPG Atari 800 on eBay Cool, including the one I got, I think that makes 4 to 5 I've seen this year on ebay. Good catch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam242 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) Cool, including the one I got, I think that makes 4 to 5 I've seen this year on ebay. Good catch Thanks! 4 or 5 since January, or in the last twelve months? Not trying to be a smart ass, just wondering how many of these are still floating around. Either way, I'm surprised it's that many. This is the first one I've seen in quite a while. Must've just gotten lucky and caught it before someone else snapped it up. Has anyone tried using one in an Incognito-equipped 800? I don't see why it would matter, but no one's mentioned it. If not, I'll certainly give it a try and report back...

Not sure if I tried the Bit3 in my Incognito or just the stock 800 to test... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariGeezer Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Not a bad price on that. I regret trading mine away. Really, The 800, Bit3 FullView 80, plus the RamPower 32k card - all in one swipe, couldn't ask for a better price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a related note, I will soon have an extra Touch Tablet, complete with AtariArtist, if anyone's interested.. PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 A couple days ago. But it was on Amazon bought Frostbite and Pressure Cooker for the 2600 for $17 combined from 1 seller. Which is a great deal. And the carts are in great shape. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can connect it to a SCSI hard drive, a IDE hard drive via a SCSI to IDE bridge or just use it as a Ram Disk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+David_P Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 You can connect it to a SCSI hard drive, a IDE hard drive via a SCSI to IDE bridge or just use it as a Ram Disk Also a high-speed serial interface - better than the 850 or other such SIO devices.

ryanr256 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) I picked this up with the intention of putting it into one of my 1200XLs: No instructions, or MyDOS disk, and I now have to pick up some 256x1 150ns chips. But, that's OK. I also have an 800XL that has the Newell 256K upgrade. -Bob Edited June 4, 2015 by ryanr256 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DrVenkman Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Sold a few of my 8-bit cart doubles and used the funds to help fuel my current, renewed VCS obsession ... In the last two weeks or so I bought picture label versions of Superman and Adventure, a 4-Switch Woody (with a Buy It Now of $10 + $5 shipping!) and Pitfall II. Superman arrived last week, but Adventure, Pitfall II and the Woody all arrived on Monday. It was a GREAT evening for me after work. Couple things about that Woody - I ordered Friday around 11:00 Central time, it was delivered a thousand miles away by Monday afternoon, wrapped as perfectly as anything I've ever ordered loose (taped inside a thick double layer of bubble wrap, cushioned by foam peanuts and inside a new, sturdy cardboard box) and it is as perfect, cosmetically, as I've ever seen. It's either been very well restored, or it was bought a long time ago and sat unused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobus Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Almost passed this up - I already had an 8K board, but then it struck me that this board should have been enclosed in the brown memory case. I suppose someone could have taken it out, but I can't see any reason to. I have no proof, but I suspect it was originally installed in an 400 and never had a case. I may install it in a 400 just for fun! Can't seem to attach a picture right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morelenmir Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I picked up (another - having broken the first within three hours of opening the package!) Din13/ST->SCART lead for use with the VBXE. And the picture that combination gives is simply jaw dropping. Using RGB signals the screen is as good as any PC monitor I have ever used. Highly, highly recommended.

adam242 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 MAC/65 with manual: At $89.99, I may have overpaid (? a little?) but it is in excellent shape and from a seller I know, trust and like. Time to get serious about learning Assembly language.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
