Hi there.
A few weeks ago I had a pleasure to be on meeting of ATARI XL/XE's fans - "Glucholazy 2008".
Except my Atati 600 XL I also took ZX81 16Kb of course.
The Atarians were pretty interested in ZX81 (some of them even more than civilized behaviour requires, probably due to huge amount of drunk alcochole), they were suprised that our beloved machine is so small, also I showed them some cool games and some visual demos (there is not many of them, as You know, it's sad).
Below You can find several photos the Atarians made. I picked up these ones related with ZX81's presence on the party but full photo-report is here, is anybody would be interested: http://krap.pl/galery/glucholazy-2008/
The machine (audio-amplifier on the left).
I brought them the paper-magazine to let them know that ZX81 community is alive enough to publish not only on the Net.
Atarians tried to write short programs in basic, also to test our magnificent keyboard itself.
I had to cover my ZX81 with an A4 sheet of paper with huge inscription: "DON'T RISE IT FROM THE TABLE". They couldn't understand how fragile the ZX-BUS is.
Even a box is interesting for collectors.
A comparison.
Yes, it's smaller than Atari.
Atarian playing ZX81 game. Actually he was MUCH BETTER in it, than I was. Hahaha.
So - it was holiday of my ZX81. Quite nice, I would say.
Greetzzzzz!!!!!

Heheh, no. It's Lisu, Atari XL/XE musician.
But it would be hard task because there was about 80 people on the party, as far as I know.
Anyway it was a good meeting.
