How much are Atari >systems selling for right now and how can you get one? I would be curious to see some sort of list also. Near as I can tell, we have 520STFM,1040STFM,520STe,1040STe,Mega 2ST,Mega 4ST, Mega 1ST, STacy (not FCC approved for home use), and the TT (not forsale in US yet I think). All of these, with the exception of the TT, are basically the same machine in different boxes (though the STe's seem to have a little extra hardware for games included). Where to buy one? That may prove to be a pain. In some areas, Atari dealers are about as abundant as Coors dealers in Saudi Arabia. :-) As far as the cost goes...I'm not sure what the going rate is, but a decent system will cost you (more or less) about the same as a 68000 machine from Apple or Commodore.
