The wonderful #ZafinnBooks¹ gave me this excellent haul of #Atari8bit equipment. All of it needs work and money put into it; none came with power supplies, for example. An #Atari800, an #Atari810 #FloppyDiskDrive, an #Atari130XE and an #AtariXG1 #LightGun.

I miss these visuals so much. You probably feel it for your respective system of choice. This is what they took from us.

As a teenager I drooled on these Atari ads... back in '79/'80 these puppies were way out of the budget, thirty years had to go by until I got me my own 400 and an 800 😎
