russg Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) European power adapters would be different, as they do 220v ac, and maybe some other electrical standard. I don't know, seems like some had 180v. Wait, at least some Europe use a 220V to 120V adapter to run the A8 on a 120V brick. The Atari 8bit FAQ, by M. Current probably has lists for printers and maybe other peripherals. Edited September 9, 2015 by russg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tep392 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 That 800XL cleaned up nice! It's amazing what a little elbow grease and cleaner can do. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Deteacher I would suggest getting a 1050 to go with the 800XL. That would ginve you the best 'old school' experiance.!! Yeah, I thought about that, but honestly, I'm more about wanting to play the games and not having to deal with floppies, so I guess I'm cheating a little. I have a C64, 1541 and tons of disks, but the drive flakes out after it warms up, so I dropped some coin on a SD2IEC. I love that thing! So, I figured I'd go the same route and get the MyIDE II flash cart...which I ordered today. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
