Manufacturer: Atari
Machine Type: Atari 800 XL
Model Number: n/a
Serial Number: 7YJ HA 93020 134
Current Status: Brand new still in box. Not tested.
Acquired: jun 2000
Remarks:
This computer is a improved version over the older 800 model. It uses a 6502c CPU running at 1.79mhz. It has 64k RAM and 24k ROM with full size keyboard. It also has 11 graphics modes and 4 sound channels. This computer was discovered still in its box, although it's quite shopworn. The computer itself looks unused and came complete with sparse documentation. When programming on a similar machine years ago, the graphics and sound appeared to be identical to what the Atari 2600 VCS could do.
