The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_8-bit_family Atari 8-bit family] is a series of 8-bit home computers introduced by [[Atari]] in 1979 and manufactured until 1992. It includes the '''Atari 400, 800, XL, XE''' and the home video game console version '''Atari XEGS'''. Due to similarity of hardware most Atari 8-bit emulators can also emulate the [[Atari 5200 emulators|Atari 5200]].

It was retailed for <abbr title="$348.47 in 2018 money">$159</abbr> and had a 6502C CPU at 1.79 MHz with 64KB of RAM. The operating system for most of the XEGS units is called the XE ROM revision C. That specification is the same as any other Atari computer (i.e. 800/XL/XE) that had that ROM, which is usually why no separate software was needed to emulate this console's hardware. The XEGS is backward compatible with the Atari 8-bit computer software library. The console could be turned into a computer with its specially designed keyboard and, while in computer mode, use most of the peripherals released for Atari's 8-bit computer line. =====Emulators=====
