  1. Is my Atari 800 a museum piece yet? on Vintage Computer Festival in San Jose · · Score: 1

    I don't know if my first personal computer, an Atari 800, counts as vintage, but I sure loved it. It's gotta be like a hundred years old in computer years, right? That's a classic for sure!

    Anyway, I put a little note with my personal info inside it before I left home for college. I have no idea where it is now.

    I wonder if I'm the only kid that thought their computer might become a collector's item someday and wanted to be sure they, as the original owner, would be credited on the plaque in the museum.

    If you open your very expensive, classic, museum-quality Atari 800 and there's a note in there from Sherman, please send it home! I miss it. You'll have to actually open the case to find the note - not just the cartridge/RAM "hood".
