FND Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 Congratulations that is quite a find! Thanks, I could not believe it when I checked Craigs list and noticed the add had just been listed, Luky I was the first to respond, I was told when I was picking it up that his mail box was getting full from the responses and people were offering more for just parts I feel very lucky to get this set up and will enjoy learning more about them BTW Here is a copy of the Craigs list add offered at 25.00 This is a big box filled with Atari stuff used for my recording studio from 1988 to 1995. There are at least two Mega computers, three monitors, two keyboards, and a bunch of SCSI drive stuff. This equipment has been stored in this big box for thirteen years, and I don't know what condition the stuff is in anymore, and I don't want to even open the box and rummage through everything to find out. The computers were well used but working when I packed it all up, but they are "as is" now. This is a deal for an Atari enthusiast and/or tinkerer. I loved these computers. They had midi ports right on the computer...no Opcode boxes reuired. They also had a 1 meg blitter video chip and 2/4 meg RAM, back when everyone else was on Intel 286's with a 256K graphics card and RAM was $175 a meg. I also used these computers for desktop typsetting with Calumus software. They have the game port, and I bought a 4 meg RAM disk cart and a Dave Small Mac emulator cart that fit the slots. In any case, this is pickup only cash only, and be feeling strong as this box is big and heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point but yes it is true I did not realize it was April 1st when I posted BTW I also found a Falcon listed for free on craigs list a few months back but due to the many replys he had received the price went up, I never got a response from the craigs list add but noticed it offered for sale here on AA after talking to him through PM's here I did purchase it although not for free anymore Here is the link to the AA post http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...91&hl=ocean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
