Retro Refurb - Atari 520ST Part 1

[@madcommodore]

My favourite 16bit Atari (and 32bit). I had the 520STM + SF354 in spring 1986 and it was an elegant machine indeed and smaller than the Commodore 128! Glad to see it getting some love. I think I have a 260ST and 3 520ST units, one of the 520STs has a lovely keyboard so probably a mk1 1985 release.

I never played with the Atari computers in the 80s, so this is all new to me. But I'm excited to get it working again.

Rumor is a ST mini is coming soon. What a score. There are also ST emulators available for Pi.

I'll have to get one to put next to my 2600+

If you don’t have a drive connected you get a white screen for a minute or two before it goes to the green desktop

I thought it should go to the desktop, but it just sits on this yellow/green screen.
