A rare Atari 260ST, which actually has 512K RAM (contrary to popular belief!). The 260ST was originally to have only 256K of RAM and some may even have shipped with it, but Atari upgraded the RAM on them before shipping them out due to them not having much free RAM once TOS was loaded.

What to get a programmer for Christmas
Once you actually find a lot of the computer related shirts and buttons from the 80s you realize programmers and geeks were ….really horny. Like really— and for the computer too. (They’re valid)
Anyways, since is Christmas (eve) I wanted to do a little post of computer related things I think the encom bunch would receive.
Flynn-
He’s the boss with the cheesy mugs. I can see him varying in his collection. 90% of his stuff is either advertising Tron and his other games or goofy stuff from magazines and catalogs. He is really easy to buy for.
Alan-
You think he and Lora are squares but half is just computer innuendo. Other half his he’s just an optimistic dork.
Lora-
She gets to be a part of the funny shirt gang. I can also see her getting this Garfield. It has not left her desk in 20 years
Roy-
Also a button guy, but I can also see him with the unironic “my X got me this shirt and thinks I’m real cool” type.
The shirts come from a magazine Ad in the 80s “ software” thats hilarious

Got my Macintosh IIsi running today on an original apple color monitor, so satisfying to see. It even has Photoshop 2 on it as well as Illustrator 1988 (the first version of illustrator was released in ‘87!), this thing is a real gem. Now I need to work on my Performa 6300cd (just to the left)
