<ul>
<li><strong>The heirloom machine</strong>, kept as close to factory-original as possible, running the stock TOS 1.04 and a classic floppy drive. Its job is to be a baseline reference: if something breaks on a modded machine, this one proves the fault isn't in the software.</li>
<li><strong>The "Low" machine</strong>, a bargain-bin Mega ST 4 rebuilt with a Cloudy/StormyCloud combo for TOS switching and extra FastRAM, a Gotek floppy emulator, an UltraSatan hard disk emulator, and a SidecarTridge multi-device for ROM, floppy, and Wi-Fi tricks. This is the demo- and game-machine, optimized for fast disk-image swapping rather than serious productivity.</li>
<li><strong>The "High" machine</strong>, the workstation build. A MonSTerBoard adds 8MB of AltRAM, IDE storage, and flashable TOS (currently TOS 2.06), running Geneva for real multitasking. A NetUSB adapter and original Atari keyboard/mouse round it out, with an ET4000 graphics card in the pipeline for higher resolutions.</li>
<li><strong>The "High" machine</strong>, the workstation build. A MonSTerBoard adds 8MB of AltRAM, IDE storage, and flashable TOS (currently TOS 2.06), running Geneva for real multitasking. An ET4000 graphics card drives a dedicated monitor for higher resolutions. A NetUSB adapter and original Atari keyboard/mouse round it out.</li>
<li><strong>The spare Mega ST 2</strong>, a reserve and donor machine, kept in largely original condition, used to safely test upgrades before they go into the "real" machines.</li>
