ANTIC Episode 16 - The Atari 8-bit Podcast - The Right Cartridge Slot

On this episode of Antic, the Atari 8-bit PODCAST: We look at the Atari 850 interface, the SIO2SD device, and the right cartridge slot --- we strike out with Alan Alda --- and our friend Gray Chang sends us a care package of amazing previously-unreleased books and software. Also with a great segment by our good friend Bill Kendrick about games converted from the Atari 2600 to the computers.  And, a special segment by Chris Olson about Atari 8-bit emulation on IOS.  It’s an information-packed episode you won’t want to miss!   Links mentioned in this episode:   Recurring Links Floppy Days Podcast AtariArchives.org AtariMagazines.com Kevins Book “Terrible Nerd” New Atari books scans at archive.org ANTIC feedback at AtariAge the Atlanta Historical Computing Society   What We’ve Been Up To Atari ITalk II Owners Manual Commodore MOS FBI FOIA Response Halftime Battlin’ Bands record, audio-instructions for CBS Software carts AtariAge Forum - found pre-release versions of Atari documentation Atari Operating System Users Manual November 1980 Atari 400/800 Hardware Manual November 1980 De Re Atari early version Atari Company Store Price List Gray Chang Source code!
