This is an original early Atari home computer setup that has been stored for many years. The computer was last used in the late 1980s and was working at that time.
I plugged the system in and the Atari 800 powers on, but I do not have the knowledge or equipment to properly test its operation. The disk drive, cartridges, disks and other components have not been fully tested.
Because of its age and limited testing, the entire lot is being sold AS-IS / FOR PARTS OR REPAIR, even though the computer does power on. I cannot guarantee that any individual component or software works correctly. One key is missing and the other is stuck, please see photos.

- Atari 800 Personal Computer – Model Atari 800
- Atari 1050 floppy disk drive
