Atari 400 ✋

I had an 800. Had the cassette tape media drive and some game for it, but could never get it working.

Also had that awful ET game.

I recall writing a screensaver in basic and letting it run overnight.

The 800 was the better machine but god damn the 400 is so sexy 🥵

The idea of writing anything on its awful membrane keyboard is inconceivable though 😅

Hey, do you want like 400,000 more copies of E.T? They're just sitting there. In some landfill.
