Have ST's suddenly plumeted in value?

Sun Sep 11, 2011 3:49 PM

Hi all,

I've just sold an STE on ebay for £5.00 which needs some work on it, a bit less than I hoped but I actually don't mind as hopefully what is happening is Atari stuff is becoming more reasonable and hopefully the STE is going to someone who will get some good use out of it. Doe's anyone else think prices are lower at the moment? I'm hoping to replace the STE maybe with a Mega STE when I have a bit more cash (and space) what chances are there of getting one at a reasonable value?

I'm in the process of closing down my former business and as we had to clear out the office our already crowded house is full of business and personal stuff that needs to go to make some space and maybe help clear off some of that pesky personal guarantee that the bank insisted on for the business :). Will be posting more items over the next few weeks on this thread.

Reading this interview the Raspberry Pi Foundation might be onto something Q&A: Eben Upton from The Raspberry Pi Foundation they might just be on to something, in School and College I learnt programming with hands on systems hopefully this will be something along those lines

Nascom Computer

I was doing some googling for a completely unrelated item and found this page nascom computer and remembered we had used them in lessons in Secondary School we used the Control Basic to operate fisher techic robots and control electronic leds etc.

Anyone else remember them? They were kit computers so when we used them they varied from having naked computers to school made yellow plastic keyboard housings

Whatever happend to the phoenix developer consortium?

Thu Aug 11, 2011 1:26 AM

The decision I made to cease trading and start winding down my Limited Company got me reflecting on previous ventures particularly http://www.atariage....t-amiga-system/

I've been able to establish a few IT support contracts on a part-time basis but really want to change direction possibly going back to developing a new console/computer concept again I've got a month or two 2 think things through as in September our youngest starts school.

Has anyone here had/has experience of supporting the 16bit platforms back in the day? I would also like to here from anyone that was involved with the Phoenix consortium to find out why it failed
