I am having an unreasonable amount of fun rediscovering the amazing #atari8bit universe. My trusty original #Atari800 has been fitted with #lotharek's #INCOGNITO board and #FujiNetPro (and a flawless 1050 floppy drive for good measure). Figuring out how to get all this hardware playing nicely together has taken me a few evenings of experimentation and many hours trawling through the #AtariAge forums! I'm getting the hang of it now. #SpartaDOSX is thankfully quite like #MSDOS, with a pleasing #Atari accent.

It's funny - games don't really interest me. It's the utility software that floats my boat. Can I actually be productive with #FlashJazzCat's #TheLastWord #WordProcessor? I can see myself writing official correspondence with it, printed to one of the many printers emulated by the #FujiNet.

Is #AtariPril a thing? Attempt to use an 8-bit Atari for all your computing needs during April? I might just get enough skills built up by then to be somewhat productive!

The #Colleen #atari800 #emulator still works well on (#degoogled) #android!

Here it is running #spartadosx to display an #atr image of #basic programs, which are executed successfully by the #basic #cartridge.

I downloaded the #APK from https://m.apkpure.com/colleen/name.nick.jubanka.colleen. It hasn't had an update since 2015, but seems to work fine. (If it gets hangy, blitz cache and data and try again.)
