Task: Explore Old Photos of Atari 8-Bit Computer Setups

Needed: Web Browser

Time: 5-10 Minutes

Introduction

Many of us grew up with Atari and have fond memories of our systems and setups. I still have my original Atari 800 and 810 floppy drive from the early 1980s. However, I do not have a photo of the computer desk with the system that lived for a long time in a corner of our dining room. I wish I did!

For that reason, I love seeing photos of Ataris posted from other people. There is a nice thread on Atari Age where people post these. Have a look!

Instructions

Navigate to the AtariAge thread titled “Old pictures of our Atari 8-bit setups” that is pinned in the Atari 8-Bit computers section.

Here is an example photo posted by Chad5200:
