I'm already beating my head against the "new A8 mobo" wall with the Mega XE.

Well, looks like I'm waiting for the next run. Which hopefully gives me time to pick up another 1200XL.

Now that a keyboard is connectible, I think I found my new 8-bit platform to toy with.

Morgan would have done far better, if only he had been given a reasonable amount of time. But I have to admit, best thing out of the Tramiel years was the ST/XE styling. It was a pretty bold style that to me ranks second only to the XL styling.

Less silly flag-waving nationalism, more hardware and software hacks.

Why? Are you planning on installing it? I just haven't heard anything in a long time (i thought the project was dead) It's BSD Unix, not Linux, but it can run the same open source software: NetBSD for Atari There was a Linux version for the ST, based on ucLinux that would run on a 68000 ST/STe. It hasn't been updated in a long, long time.

Hi there. Okey-dokey, please keep us updated on anything you find out. I know I'm not the only one interested! What I'm looking at for a "direct" replacement is a 640x400 resolution EL panel the same size as the original LCD. The big advantage, it'd be MUCH more readable than the standard LCD, and provides a replacement for the numerous owners of STacys with dead screens.

I'm working on a couple of screen replacement ideas. The first being a straight across replacement for ST High.

Atari return as a hardware maker..... not happening. Besides, anything such an impending disaster could do today just wouldn't be a real Atari.

Happy happy joy joy happy happy joy joy.

More than one. 4 130XE 2 1200XL 1 800XL

Looks fun. Think I'll do a "big" A8 project after I finish the "big" ST project I'm wading through at the moment. (EL Stacy screen replacement)

Nope! The Intellivision uses the CP1610 which is a 16bit CPU and nothing like an 8051. Yep, true. The i8048 was used in the Odyssey 2.

On an A1200, hold down both mouse buttons on startup and you can select between NTSC and PAL.

I've noticed. I paid $90 in 1999 for a 1040STF, SC1224, SM124, Monitor Master, mouse, and a USR 14.4 with 100 or so floppies with games, apps, and blanks. And now I'm seeing SM124s going for $50-90 before shipping. It was enough to get me working on my STacy screen replacement project again.

None. Unless it had the cream/offwhite and brown with silver trim, and the bevelled edges of the XL design, it doesn't match. That's why I said it was a dream of mine. I guess I could paint my 1084S to some extent to match in color, but there's no monitor that I've seen with bevelled edges and brush metal trim. Though I don't recall what a TI monitor looks like, got a pic or link to a pic? I have a TI 99/4A, but just it and the voice synthesis module, no monitor, no drive and it's packed away at the moment. So I'm guessing maybe the TI monitor uses brushed metal trim like the TI 99/4A? Maybe it would make a good match with a little paint. Addressing that lack of an XL-look monitor is on my to-do list.

Most impressive.

1200XL would be my preference. Though the ST case would allow a more proper PC keyboard.

Pics please???? When it's done. I'm splitting time on it with two other projects. Hence I work on them when the mood strikes me.

1st place: AmigaOS 2nd place: GEM/TOS 3rd place: SpartaDOS

This one wins. Though my current project is building a 130XE into a Mega ST case.

I'd have to say.... 1. Atari 1200XL 2. Apple IIgs/IIc+ 3. Atari ST/STE/Mega/Mega STE/TT/Stacy 4. Amiga 600/1200 5. IBM PS/2 Model 25 6. Panasonic FS-A1GT MSX turbo R
