Did I hear that you're looking for an emulator? I recommend Hatari [0] if you want to run games and demos. You'll likely need a TOS ROM image [1]; Hatari comes with EmuTOS, which doesn't work with a lot of games that make assumptions about the memory layout of internal OS structures and the like.

If you want to run well written GEM applications then I recommend ARAnyM [2], which is a lot faster, due to not attempting to do a cycle-accurate emulation of all the original hardware.

And if you have any issues with the above, there are still lots of people hanging out in Atari-Forum that might be able to help [3].

Hey. Thanks so much. Really for the links and the guidance on how I might want to navigate it.

Help like this makes a passing wish but little time a lot more doable.

I know some HNers don’t like unprovoked longer form content but I have always been appreciative of it like this and try to do it myself cuz you never know who it might reach passively.

Signing up for Atari forum :)
