Hi all.

I recently won an eBay auction for a bunch of what was supposed to be Atari 2600 power supplies. However, most of them did not have the male audio-like plug common to the 2600, but an annular? connector; male, but meant to go into a socket that has a pin/post in the center. The power supplies have the Atari logo on them. They are clearly not for the 2600; does anyone have an idea what they might go to?

They are probably Atari computer power supplies.

Is the output voltage 9VAC ? That is the kind that runs the Atari 400/800 and disk drive units.

yeah, if it is big and square and has a two cords coming out of it (one for the wall and one for the hardware) it is for the computer systems. Not the normal 2600 wall wart.
