tschak909 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I was one of the buyers of the first batch of Incognitos from Candle. And I put it up until I could put it in my system... ...and now I can't find it. Does anyone have another one they can sell? I really need a daily driver for development work. -Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faicuai Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) Boy, this is a prettty difficult subject, even for those of use who own more than one Incognito board. I actually bought two out of instinct... Once I installed it, it became clear how dependent and central to the system it would become. It literally elevates the 800 to the top of the hill, where it really belongs.... but if at any point in time, the lights go out on that Incognito, there goes your 800 too, because of HOW MUCH it enhances its functionality (I will NEVER go back to the OEM personality board). Due to no NO supply (literally), these boards will run up to $200-$250 on e-Bay, and that is if you ever find one... That basically puts the combined value of my current 800 (Made-in-USA, in absolutely pristine condition + its hard to find carrying-case custom made for it) in about $450-$600, on e-Bay. I do wonder how many folks out-there still want one of these special boards... All I can say is that Incognito + Atari 800 means savoring Atari... at is truly best!

Level42 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 One who looses the holy-grail of 800 owners does not deserve a second one. My PAL 800 does..... Is there a copyright on these things ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Lotharek has the Incognito 2 in his "In Development" section but with no extra information given. Hopefully there will be some movement ahead on this project sometime soon. I am crossing my fingers that it will be compatible with the 400.

BillC Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Lotharek has the Incognito 2 in his "In Development" section but with no extra information given. Hopefully there will be some movement ahead on this project sometime soon. I am crossing my fingers that it will be compatible with the 400. The Incognito for the 800 uses the OS/personality card slot not present on the 400, the image Candle has posted shows this hasn't changed with the Incognito2: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/259375-please-can-we-have-one-more-incognito-run/page-3?do=findComment&comment=3681011 A version for the 400 would use the RAM card slot. Candle did start a thread about an Incognito like upgrade for the 400 in January 2013, but his last post in the thread was September 6 2013. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/207429-atari-400-incognito-like-upgrade 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
