Hey I know this isn't the list, but I have a COMPLETE Atari 800XL 
system lovingly
packed away in one box. Puter, printer,1050 sloppydisk drive, tape 
drive, paddles,
joysticks, and a nice amber monochrome monitor (it comes with an RF output for
use with a color TV). I think I can dig up a coupla joysticks too.

I had a ball with this system in the 80s, and have tons of software 
with it, on floppy,
tape, and cartridge. I'd be happy to let it go to a Good Home (no cannibals) in
return for some way to recover the mentioned software (or at least a 
couple of the
games) to run on my Mac (I have something called the Rainbow Atari 
Emulator demo
shareware thing, and was hoping I could use that).

So if anyone knows how to get the info OFF the 5" floppies and into 
my Mac (!), and
would enjoy owning this ancient but capable 8-bit system (it's in 
great shape, too),
please let me know off-list at < [EMAIL PROTECTED] >

The only hitch is shipping. My guess is that surface mail is the only 
way that'll make
economical sense, and maybe not packing the monitor...
