just curious, theres a section for everything but the home computers. is one being made, or are they just not special enough?

I had to re-read this a few times before it sunk in... lol Well, there's Atarimania.com in case you were not aware. Besides it being a major project, perhaps there's some sort of arrangement between the sysops? There's also no 16/32 section either :-(

[Fischer500]

Hm. I do know of atarimania, but I mainly use atariage, and it *is* ATARIage. And they *are* atari machines after all. I dunno, I just figured it would be helpful, since I was looking at the 2600 one before I got a 2600, it might help since I'm startin' now with 8-bit, it'd been helpful.

Some pages are online, like rarity guide:

Awesome! Where in the heck is the gateway to that though? I've never seen this!

[Philsan]

Someone in the past has posted the links.
Remembering this, I have changed the final part of Atari 2600 links substituting "2600" with "800".

I agree, it's almost like the 8-bit Atari computer doesn't exist when you go on to the main/home page of AtariAge

sloopy.

It isn't included as a link on the main page because it never made it to the point where it was considered ready for "prime time". I'm not sure what the future plans are for it at this point. I would really love to see it worked on again. I know the 8-bit cart catalogue would be time consuming to complete, but even a partial/unfinished one would be good. Maybe Albert needs some help in working on it.
