The VintNerd

Floppy Disk Friday! Clearly, the problem is I don't have enough of my Favorite odd-ball Atari device! 🤪

@TheVintNerd ahven't fired up any of my atari stuff for a long time, have an 800, an 800XL and a 130XE, plus various floppy drives and so forth, much of it I inheretted from an old friend and fellow Atari freak who has since passed away so I keep it for sentimental reasons if nothing else but all still works so far as I know.

@PaganLord116 Nice. Get some of it hooked-up and running! 😃

@TheVintNerd I really should, this is the main reason I keep our old vintage color tv around, it has the old twin lead and coaxial cable inputs that allow me to hook a lot of this old stuff up which is a real nightmare on this modern stuff.

@TheVintNerd You could create demo scroll text spanning 10 monitors (9 x XEP80 + one color from the Atari machine)
