馃懢 FPGA-Based Atari ST Mini Is Here, But The Initial Production Run Is A Mere Five Units // @TimeExtension
Whitesmiths Idris for the Atari ST, an early Unix-like real-time operating system produced by Whitesmiths, has been fully recovered and now runs under emulation. Idris is a Unix variant I never heard of which ran on a variety of machines, even 8080 micros.

snoopy stopped by! say hi to snoopy!

i will fix the original power supply... someday *fist shake*
for now it's always good to have a backup for a machine i was planning to show at meets 馃
i have an Apple 12v power brick and a little buck converter board that claims 3A capacity
if i mathed right this all should be enough to power it
hooking up the 12v confirms we get sound and RF now
welp power supply in my beater 520ST died a quiet death, the obvious stuff is fine so it's something hard
running it off a lab supply, it will indeed boot up on 5v only, but we lack sound, RF output and probably serial
seems we need 12v 馃

I found another Dice Waltz program, this time for the Atari ST (The Dice Waltz, by Chris Earnshaw). Its user interface is quirky, even by the standard of programs written in GfA BASIC. I couldn't get the soundchip output to record at the right speed, but it can generate MIDI files, so I overlaid that on a screenshot

If my memory serves me correctly, I think the first Atari ST game my father bought was Space Station 馃殌
I also remember owning Crafton & Xunk, Starglider, Captain Blood, Elite and others (see screenshots)
Do you remember your first games on Atari ST? 馃榾
