This is the all black version (no long rainbow stripe), I hear only sold in Ireland, so how I got one in Nottingham I don't know.

One of my hobbies is collecting retro-computers, focusing on computers made by Atari. I have currently have eleven different Atari-models, three from Commodore and one other model in my collection.
The Atari TT was Atari's flagship computer, boasting with a 32MHz 68030 CPU. When I learned about it I always dreamt of owning one, but back then there was just no way I could afford one.
But despite moving on to PC the dream was always there to one day own an Atari TT. And in the beginning of 2012, I was finally able to lay my hands on one on Ebay from Germany. When checking it more carefully it turns out it was sold on Ebay from Austria a couple of months earlier. It was then equipped with an extra graphics card and that owner had moved the two extra serial ports to the case, that's how I recognised it.
To my absolute horror it developed some bad hardware errors after a week, crashing all the time and refusing to boot, but luckily it turns out that since this is a relatively early model, most chips are in sockets, so all I needed to do was to push down on some chips to make it work again. But since then I'm really careful about not moving it about too much.
I've got 16MB of TT-RAm for it now, replaced the cooling fan and the clock battery. One of these days I plan to retro-bright the case as well.
Here we can see the atari 1040ste that was the last atari 16 bit computer I owned.
520stfm was my first.
It has the ICD hard disk attached that was partitioned into 16mb segments so that TOS could read it.
I also have the 51/4 inch drive as a floppy backup.
Complete with teletext decoder and tv input this was the bees knees.
I stayed way too long on the atari platform before moving to the 32 bit amiga 1200 next to it.
You can also see Captain scarlet's boots, a stellar projector and an old alarm clock .
Recording the CD 'Look: Nederlands!'
After working with the Atari for a years I stopped using computers, synths and MIDI for a really long time. Only trying to do things live. Pure :)
... a few years ago :)

A great game from 1979. Wish I had one of these machines, it was actually a lot of fun and a decent workout until you had enough of the track ball pinching your hand.
