Hey! You! You have an Atari 800 that you want to upgrade, but don't know what to do? Want the Ultimate 1MB goodness in your 800? Want an INTERNAL mass storage device?
Wait no more! The Incognito is available in the United States. For TBA customers I have imported some Incognitos for you to install in your 800 ***OR*** we will install it for you for a small fee! (You must send us your machine to us to install. We do NOT make house calls! ;-) ). Price for installed machines does not include return shipping. Email for details.
We recommend that you install FJC's (https://atari8.co.uk/firmware/incognito/) sublime firmware! He has written an extensive manual available here: CLICK ME

Installation options
"Regular disk swap button": In order to load multi-disk ATR files, you will need some way to tell the 800 to "swap" disks. You do this by pressing a small button. We can install this wherever you like. by drilling a small hole in your case.
OR
"Power light disk swap button": In order to load multi-disk ATR files, you will need some way to tell the 800 to "swap" disks. You do this by pressing a the power on light. It looks very nice and is cool. However, installing it that way is a MASSIVE pain in the #$%^&*. We can do it, but it is another hour's worth of labor (probably two, but we will only charge you for the first hour of cursing).
