A really cute and nice Picture.
I am really happy you like it.
I've had it as me wallpaper for quite a while ;p
i don't know why, but I like this. It's definitely not because im a digimon tamers fan...
hehehe
Remind me I need to continu the manga
But I really hope these Chips on your Avatar Picture are not the Remainings from an Atari XL...Atari is power without price! now you're playing with power...

Actually it's an "off the shelf 2600", pretty much a proper computer designed around the 2600 chipset, but with improvement, first a whole whopping 2mhz 6502, riot, 2 cxk58256 (64k+128bytes of sram), atmega8515 (or 644) running at 21.47727 mhz, ntsc Tia, and can't go wrong with a ay-3-8910 for a total of 5 channels of sound output. I've gotten the basic memory map laid out just kinda put it on the back burner atm, all parts were sourced from ebay.
Gotta trouble shoot my 800xl, it turns on and you can see flickering and some audio cues, but blank, Im looking at a donor 600xl though, but it's either ram, or CPU, but I'll just buy either a cheap donor 600xl/5200, or source the main chipset from best electronics, see if I can use those sram drop in for the CPU and also use the 64k of dram, for 128k

Getting Parts or even whole Devices is near impossible here in Austria.....
From Prices for working Devices I do not speak....
My "Precious" Atari 800 XL is safe in my Parents Cellar.

Haha, yeah I usually check eBay, or best-electronics-ca.com since they bought all of Atari remaining stock/parts, they are however based in California, you can still build a 2600 cheaply since they still produce 2/3 of it's chipset, even sourcing the video chip is under $15-20 , but 8bit computers, unless I find a deal, I can buy a working one usually for the cost of repairing, (bought my 800xl for $40usd its a deal compared to now I guess) it'll cost about 60-80 USD for the whole chipset, but working 800xl are 150-200usd+ that's why I'm looking at a donor 600xl that I hope is fully socketed like my 800xl

My girlfriend at the time, she had me stay up with her all night because some how the crazy bitch had spent like 12 hours snorting 2 8 balls, didn't use any water (gotta clean your nose) so she had so much crusted in her nose I was sure she was gonna blow up her heart. I mean this was the stuff right off the boat so absolutely pure. ugghh so annoying
