Kermit Woodall Fulfills Promise to go Atari!
« on: September 12, 2003, 08:20:50 PM »
Although this isn't the April Fools prank I pulled about porting ImageFX to a network of Atari 2600s - it's not far off. I built a PC into an old Atari 2600 for the heck of it. Cory Doctorow, SF writer and Wired columnist, liked it enough to put it in this Wired article!

Well - I've still got the Atari - but it's semi-disassembled at this time. As for getting the video microwave any press, he wrote this story a hell of a long time ago - I hadn't even heard of Video Microwave at that time.

For the rest of ya - the Atari's were all dead, and the Amiga 1000 I converted was just an empty shell I bought. No working systems were sacrificed!
