  • Atari 800
  • Atari 800XL/130XE
  • Atari 5200

Accelerated Falcon

Continually developed by Atari800 team. There is a need for some rework in source code since it is a long time the last Atari Falcon binary appeared and Petr Stehlik (Atari Falcon port's maintainer) seems to lost interest in building Atari Falcon binaries. [1]
