In Topic: New GUI for the Atari 8-bit
Fri Jan 20, 2012 2:58 PM
Its on my radar, once the XM is done and out of the way and at the end of spring once all of the major foot work is done on the Atari History book Marty and I are working on is out of the way, I want to look at bringing the 1090XL out and also get back to doing the 1200XL pizza box top with PS/2 to 8bit keyboard interface I built a while ago.
Just too much on my plate and I need to finish and deliver other long promised stuff first.

Has the schematics for the 1090XL ever surfaced, or has anyone reverse engineered it? I think it would be kind of neat to make replica 1090XL expansions, and build new peripherals that meet that 'standard'. Yes, Curt has them click this link to the old thread I don't know if he finished.

If you want a path for the ATARI to have serious "plug in" expansion possibilities in the future (in the same sense that the Apple II and PC did) then I think a universally accepted upgrade to the PBI standard is in order..
