[It's here! A very special THE400 Mini Atari Unboxing]

Good question.  They didn't call the C64 or VIC20 replicas 'The64' or 'The20'...

[Which model of the Atari VCS/2600 do people usually prefer ?]

I have three different versions of the 2600: an original heavy-sixer, a short rainbow Junior, and a Sears Video Arcade II

I try to cycle through all three to make sure they get even usage, but the Sears is my favorite for a couple of reasons:  it has a very nice RF output (especially compared to the Jr.) and the controller ports are on the front, making them a bit easy to swap out.

One last note on Atari collecting. I highly recommend Leonard Herman’s ABC To The VCS. My edition of the book (which is old) covers over 700 titles including homebrews. The reviews are concise, but provide enough information for you to make a decision on whether/not to try a particular title. It had been out of print, but is now available via Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The new copies include a Forward by Brett Weiss.

Thanks for posting about this book - it looks very interesting!  I looked on Amazon Canada and they had copies for about $15 - and I even used travel points to pay for most of it, so it essentially cost me about $4!  It is scheduled to arrive in 2 days...
