I used to have a couple of slot load IDE CD drives with an internal 4 disc magazine. Now I could be wrong or wrong about what machine it was for but I seem to remember a video tape data backup system, may have been for the Amiga tho...There deffo was one, just not sure for who..

I have many. I'll never use them all. He can have some of mine. Be aware that it may take me a while to search my stuff. I have lots and lots of Atari 8-bit things that I will never use. Anybody looking for something? (not Collectibles, OK?) Gilsaluki: MediaMate or Flip-n-File? Believe it or not, if you've got a spare disk-notcher to make "flippy" disk, that would be great.

Gunstar Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I could use more of the flip-in-file cart holders (disk too, but I'll accept any kind there), I have filled what I have. I attempted to order more from Best E., back before I boycotted them, but they were sold out anyway. Willing to pay what is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Here's a quick list of the APX manuals that not any of the five versions of the manuals have not been archived (with the exception of two of these that have VERY low res scans of them and I would like to make more readable scans.) Plus software of the last few APX programs that have not been archived. Checker King Diggerbonk Polycalc Lemonade Basic Number Utility (RENUM) Reversi Character Set Editor (software as well) Presidents of the United States Solitair Isopleth Map-Making Package GTIA Demonstration Diskette Rabbotz Utility Diskette II Data Base/Report System Word Search Generator Snark Hunt Calculus Demon Market Place Geography Deep Blue C Compiler Real Estate Cash Flow Analysis Diskmenu Home Loan Analysis (software as well) Dandy Wordgo Calculator (just the software) I will try to make a list of software from other publishers.

I've linked them on my page here https://atari8bit.net/software/?d=c&g=Books&f=Manuals Those are definitely better than the one's I found. Weird that the higher-res versions didn't show up when I searched Archive.org for "atari 400 guide" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariGeezer Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I don't need any flip-in-file cart holders, already have 3, but if you have an Orange Basic XE Cart, that would be nice. That would complete my OSS cart stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamm Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Ok, whoever ends up with the manuals to scan - let's share some unaltered 1200DPI scans so we can each have a crack at post-processing clean-up, okay? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8guy Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Is this just really a wish list of A8 stuff and Bob1200xl sees if he has it and is willing to part with it? Seems very generous. Don't need anything myself, got more than I can use now. But my hat's off to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimo Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 An 800xl keyboard, the top half of an 800 and an 810 drive would be high on my list ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the 800 is pretty easy, what version of k/b (picture)? An 810 for parts is doable, tested and working is hard. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
