The Coleco Adam is a home computer and expansion device for the ColecoVision by American toy and video game manufacturer Coleco. The Adam was an attempt to follow on the success of the company's ColecoVision video game console. It was available as Expansion Module #3 for the ColecoVision, converting it into a home computer, and as a standalone unit. As such, it had the benefit of being entirely compatible with all ColecoVision games and peripherals. The computer came with 64 KB of memory, a tape drive for a proprietary medium called Digital Data Packs, a daisy wheel printer, and productivity applications, along with two DDPs for SmartBASIC and Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom Super Game. It was released in October 1983 with the initial price of $700.

The Atari ST was a microcomputer developed by Atari and released 1985.
TOS (The Operating System) was the operating system for the Atari ST line of computers.
FreeMiNT (MiNT is Now TOS) is a replacement kernel used by VanillaMiNT, EasyMiNT, STMiNT, etc.

History

TOS was developed by Atari, and came preinstalled on all official Atari ST variants. TOS was discontinued when Atari left the computer market. TOS was replaced by the FreeMiNT (then called MiNT), in a somewhat official capacity (came bundled with Atari Falcons as MultiTOS) and unofficially by hobbyists installing it on their computers.

Before diving in;
  • Note that FreeMiNT is in general very compatible with Atari TOS programs
  • Much of the below software's minimum requirement is a Falcon030 with 64 MB RAM or Falcon060 with 64 MB RAM according to Mikro's homepage.
  • The download page for each individual piece of software should give more accurate system requirements.

The NEC PC-9800 series (PC-98), were a family of computers made by NEC throughout 1982 to 2007. Despite using Intel x86 chips, MS-DOS and Windows, and many other superficial similarities, the series is not IBM compatible. Some PC-98 software may work on an IBM or vice versa, but this is very YMMV.[1]
