CP/M Module Leads Trio Of Advanced Expansion Devices For Atari Home Computers

From The Ahl Collection



Here is a June 5th, 1983 Atari Press Release announcing CP/M Module Leads Trio Of Advanced Expansion Devices For Atari Home Computers.

The "Trio of Advanced Devices" mentioned in the press release include:
  • The Atari 1060 CP/M Module
  • The Atari 1090 XL Expansion Box
  • The Atari 1064 Memory Module for the Atari 600XL
While the 1064 would find its way to retail shelves, both the 1060 and the 1090 would ultimately be cancelled.

Here are some photos of the Atari 1090 XL Expansion System, on loan from Curt Vendel and the Atari History Museum, that I had on display in my Atari XE Exhibit at Vintage Computer Federation's Vintage Computer Festival East 2019 at the InfoAge Science And History Center in Wall, NJ.
