oracle_jedi Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I missed this auction completely. I have enough ST machines already so I probably would not have bid on it, but I would still have expected it to go for a bit more. The completed auction link is here. I copied the images for posterity for when Ebay clears the auction. Did one of our members win this? An interesting machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfollowell Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Interesting. I can't say that I've ever even heard of such a beast. The only 2MB machines I was aware of were the Mega2s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikro Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I saw this unit (incl. the typo) back in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarkdluG Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Yet another board revision. Interesting they added buffer chips on the ram. I wonder where in the timeline this was created. Would have been nice to see inside the shifter box (probably no change there) and under the disk drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says marketing sample underneath. Maybe just a prototype? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazer Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Very cool! Can this unit take up to 4MB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zafinn Books Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 These were sold into some Eastern european dealers as special orders circa 1987. The 4160STF was displayed at the World of Atari show the previous year (1986) but never sold. 2080/4160STE's were shipped to developers in 1989. Atari also provided these name-plates to select dealers who upgraded stock models in some countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
