Heckendorn’s Atari 800 Laptop
Ben Heckendorn, hacker extraordinaire of the Portable PS1, PS2, SNES, Sega Genesis, N64, and Nintendo NES, has now turned his magic loose on the Atari 800. Measuring 11 3/8″ x 7 1/2″ x 2″, the Atari 800 laptop is one kick-ass piece of nostalgia. The Atari laptop boasts an 8″ TFT screen, dual speakers, a CompactFlash “disk drive” storage (16 megs currently), a built-in Ni-MH battery that can charge while running, a full keyboard, a built-in player 1 & 2 controls, joystick ports, a cursor control knob (the thing below space bar), a slim SIO floppy drive port for hooking up extra drives or a PC, a brushed aluminum & woodgrain case, and an “Error list” printed on case in reference to old portable/pocket computers.

hi. Will you be selling any of your portable units? Can one be custom ordered if necessary? I am especially interested in the atari 800 laptop and the portable colecovision. this is a serious inquiry. I do look forward to hearing from you. Much thanx.
Yea, you could make alot of money selling these items, I’m specally intrested in your awesome NES and SNES portables. Also, wouldn’t it be possable to use a clone like Neo Fami to make them?
