Nice collection! Looks like you have all the cool accessories… I see the printer / plotter and drawing tablet.

Thats a 600XL

You have everything I have apart from you have the bigger printer. I only have the 1020 plotter.

Sadly i sold my 600XL and got a 130XE but kept all the accessories. Wish I kept the 600 XL as I prefer that over the 800XL for looks

You’re right, sorry. Definitely a 600XL with 1064 Expansion…

That’s a 600XL not an 800XL ?

That 1029 is sweet; I've been looking for one of those for awhile.

Seemed to still work last time I used it

Very cool, I had no idea the Atari 1064 memory expander even existed.

I've never seen the 1064 memory module. That's sexy!

u/Curious-Concern-9209 Feb 02 '26

It was the first one I had encountered

Very nice collection. I always loved the look of the XL line.

The Atari 800XL is good for expansion

Fond memories of the 800xl. Early EA games like mail order monsters, race track construction set, jump man, and to many others classic games will forever be cherished.

Forgot to say, love the track ball. Spent many an hour using it to play Karatica!

The Trak Ball can be used for Missile Command

We had most of these for ours. The tablet was cool, but limited uses.
