I had a 800xl back in the day and would love another. But I will have an 8bit atari computer next month Smiley looks like it will be the base model 800

Just got this beauty in the mail thought others might enjoy seeing this. It was from the UK so they have way more games on cassettes then we ever got here in the usa. Probably the best $60 I have ever spent

These are the original pictures from the listing.







and once it got here






still need to get some power converters but going to love owning this.

This is the power supply of my v64 and I have used the adapter on this. So I think it should be fine but at same time I think I would prefer to have a 110v variant Smiley

I plan to buy a SD card reader for it to I can have access to quicker loading of software but I want my first experience with the speccy to be exactly how it would have been back in the day. I know I'm picky.

This is the type of adapter I have

I use it with my UK power cable on the V64 addon for n64 system.

I got the second box in the mail on dec19th, still haven't tested the system yet. I have a generic travel adapter I use with my v64 cdrom drive on the n64.



The seller did the composite av mod and redid all the caps for me. The main thing keeping me from using the system is looking for a tape drive locally.

The first part of a new system for me. I have never owned one of these until now. It had to be shipped in two boxes due to weight, so hopefully I can get the rest tomorrow and start playing around  Grin
The power cable is in the other box
