I have sold all my 8-bit Ataris a number of years ago - new twins and job will do that to you sometimes... Fortunately I've been lucky enough to get back into my passion, and have real space this time to set up few systems. I'm working on an 800XL set up now, and have few questions. Forgive me if I'm asking something obvious, but I'm trying here!
I got a mint 800XL with chroma/luma, and 1084 monitor. I want to build it out fully, so here we go:
1. Does anyone make modern PSUs? I have an ingot that I'm using as a decoration and a donor for cables if I have to, and the old, case-matching big PS that should be safe, but I would love to get something new, like the Commodore guys seem to have in abundance...
2. Planning on getting Ultimate 1mb from Lotharek, anything non-obvious that I should know about?
3. Is VBXL worth it? I'm decent with a soldering iron (as long as it's not SMD stuff) so installation is not a problem...
Thanks, hopefully this will help not only me but others just getting into this as well, all in one place...
