Atari 1090 Expansion system
« on: July 18, 2014, 12:52:19 PM »
Wow......http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261533809668?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

This is extremely rare. None were ever released. AFAIK no (or almost no) expansion cards have been developed....although seller mentions a 64K memory expansion board he tested it with.

I don't think... Yes it's high but it's a "proto" hardware  ::)

This must be cool, linked to a 1450XLD  ;D ;D
