What Atari computer do you own

Hello

There are some great Atari collections there!

For the moment, I own:

Atari 520 STe
Atari 1040 STf
Atari Mega ST4

For the moment, I'm looking for a 800XL as it was THE computer for a friend of mine when he was young, I'd like to make him this pleasure.

See you,

Thomas
 
What you mean Falcon expanded, with what?

Atari 520STFM Enhanced
Atari 800XL
Atari Falcon030 Computer System Expanded
Atari XE Game System (XEGS)

I also have a Compumate for the Atari 2600, so that sort of counts. ;-)

My favorite of those? Tough call. If it were working 100%, it would probably be the 1200XL for its look and feel, but on the 8-bit side, probably the 800 for its features and age.

Here's my full list of systems/platforms that is relatively up-to-date: http://www.billandchristina.com/vgamecomp/systems.htm

I used to own the Atari 400-I believe it was. Mom though it away when I moved out. She also threw away 7 Gretzky rookie cards. Thanks mom.

Honestly, I'd have to look again to see all the stuff the Falcon has. It was pretty loaded when I got it. I believe it was part of a fairly sophisticated music setup.

Would seriously recommend having a good play with that there sounds like you've got an enviable setup.

My mum also threw out the 520stfm with 1mb upgrade, a broken stfm, 2 monitors and loads of original games (still got 2 black bags full of original boxes in the loft though)
Thank god my dad saved the st hard drive, mice, joysticks and the falcon.
 
I have these in mine collection:)
1 Atari 400 My first computer 1982
2 800XL's
1 1010 program recorder
1 1050 disk drive
1 XMM-801 printer
And they all Work.
 
busted up 520stfm I pulled out of the garbage. No floppy drive. I think I have the p/s even, but it's detached from the 'puter and I never played w/it, strangely enough.

I suffer from sever Atari ST/TT/Mega/Falcon envy. I think it's one of the, if not the coolest computers of the 80s. It just so bloody rocks. And so does my heap. Hope to get it working eventually. Or acquire new Atari stuff altogether.

I do have some Mega chips I bought off ePay too. I think NOS replacements or what have you.
 
how could I forget. I *did* own the remnants of the Lynx I bought new years ago. I took it apart, years ago, and left it that way. The lcd had a bubble on the screen, not sure if that was evidence of a catastrophic defect or not. Maybe that's why I chucked it. I think I chucked it.
 
I've got the following:

Atari 400
Atari 800 (with Bit-3 "Full-View 80" videocard)
Atari 600XL
Atari 800XL
Atari 1200XL
Atari XEGS
Atari MegaST-2

I've got various Atari and Indus disk drives, plus modems, printers, 850 interfaces, hard disks and such for them..but I'd have to say that the original 800 is my favorite of them. I usually use it with the Indus GT floppy drives and various DOS versions. It's such a capable system, and once you include the ROM/RAM slots as expansion slots, plus all of the external add-ons, it's quite expandable as well. I used to love driving up to Toad Computers outside of Anapolis, MD and seeing what kind of 8-bit stuff they had stashed away.

Attached is a sign still displayed here locally, an electronics shop proclaiming that they are an authorized Atari dealer, though it's a bit faded after all this time.

I have at least one each of Atari 400, 800, 1200XL, 600XL, 800XL, 65XE, 130XE, 520 ST, 1040 STf, Mega ST 2, 1040 STe, and Falcon 030.
 
I have:
- 800
- 800XL
- 130XE
- 1200XL
- 1040STf (2x)
- 1040STE
- MegaST (1, 2, 4)
- MegaSTE (2x)
- TT030
- Falcon030 (2x)
- Falcon060 (Falcon030 + CT60 + CTPCI + EtherNAT + SuperVidel is coming)
- FireBee (currently at the customs)

Consoles:
- 2600 Light Sixer + CompuMate keyboard
- 7800 + waiting for the XM module (http://www.atarimuseum.com/videogames/consoles/7800/expansion/)
- XEGS + Keyboard
- Jaguar 2x + CD unit
- Lynx I, II

PC:
- PC4
- Portfolio (2x)
 
Add a Mega ST 4 to that list. I also have several models of Atari and Sears 2600, 2 5200's, a 7800, a Jaguar and a Lynx. Just wanted to add those for completeness.
 
My Atari's:
400, 130XE, 2xXE game with keyboards, 2x Atari STFM 520 (one is upgraded to 2.5mb), Atari ST 260 with TOS on disks, Atari STE 1040(4MB), Atari Falcon 030 14Mb.
Game systems 2x Lynx, one is brand new in sealed box, different 2600's from the first to the last

My favourite is the STFM 520 which I have upgraded, modded and had a lot of fun with it. The STE never got the same use, and the Falcon is barely used at all......
 
My Atari computers, not counting 2600s, perpherals and repeated ones:

- 400
- 800
- 600 XL
- 800 XL
- 65 XE
- 130 XE
- XEGS
- 520 ST
- 520 STfm
- 1040 STf
- Mega ST 4

Atari computers were the most popular home computers in Chile, but didn't have one (Apple II at home) so i played a lot of games at my buddie's house (way more fun than the A2). Second to them were the Sinclair line of home computers: ZX81, TS1000 and Spectrum. Apple and Commodore were too expensive for chilean families.

Have a nice day.

Here's my list:

- 400
- 600XL
- 800XL
- 1200XL
- 800XE
- 130XE
- 520 STfm
- Mega ST 2
- Falcon030

I've also several consoles and peripherals; but I suposse that they don't count as computers...
 
I have only 3 Atari-Computers

1x 800XL with some optimisations ( Stereo / S-Video / Memory-Expansion [ RAMBO+Compy-Shop ] / Oldrunner+XL-OS Switch )
1x 1040STf
1x 1040STfm
 
I traded away my boxed 800XL. Instead I have gained a loose (NTSC) 800 and a boxed 520STm, in addition to the 130XE that I've once started with. So a net sum of three Atari computers.
