Atari prob, etc.

Due to massive amounts of caffeine & sleep deprivation, Isaac Davis said: Nope. Sorry about this, but I used to work for RS and I have an Atari 800... (sorry... no spare power supplies) and I can honestly say that I doubt you will find any power supply from there that puts out AC. The only machine that I can remember (and I remember most) from RS that took an AC wart was the Tandy MC-10 (micro color computer), which took 8VAC at 1A IIRC. You can't even get this PS from RS anymore, and it was for their own computer! Sadly, if it ain't DC, RS won't have one... One thing I would be willing to do (when I have time, which won't be for at least a month) is to open one of my PS's for an exact schematic & parts list to build your own. I do know all the parts to build an AC PS are available at the Shack... not sure of cost, of course. Lemme know if you want me to do this, and remind me in a couple of months that I volunteered to perform said surgery. On this note... I do know that there is a *lot* of software on the Web for 8-bits, but does anyone know where I can find a utility to read/write SSSD Atari disks on my IBM? I do know that the extended density stuff is just not possible on PeeCee's, but SD should be possible. Hope this helps, and TIA as well!
