[net.micro] Atari 5200 question

newman (11/04/82)

If the Atari 5200 is really a 400 without a keyboard, it would seem to be
worth a try to connect a keyboard to it rather than doing it to a 400 and
paying for its miserable keyboard. Anyone tried it?

You can't easily convert a 5200 to a 400, because not just the keyboard 
is missing.  You also would need an Operating System, a 400/800 style
ROM cartridge slot, controller ports (perhaps), and an I/O bus port.
