<li><strong>The <a href="/retro/mega-st-heirloom/">heirloom machine</a></strong>, kept as close to factory-original as possible, running the stock TOS 1.04 with a classic floppy drive and its own original Atari keyboard and mouse. 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 <a href="/retro/mega-st-low/">"Low" machine</a></strong>, a bargain-bin Mega ST 4 rebuilt with a <a href="/retro/storm-cloudy/">Cloudy/Storm ST combo</a> for TOS switching and extra FastRAM, a <a href="/retro/gotek/">Gotek floppy emulator</a>, an <a href="/retro/ultrasatan/">UltraSatan</a> hard disk emulator, a <a href="/retro/sidecartridge/">SidecarTridge multi-device</a> for ROM, floppy, and Wi-Fi tricks, and a <a href="/retro/atari-networking-bbs/">Wi-Fi modem</a> for dialing into BBSs. It uses an original Atari keyboard and a <a href="/retro/mouster/">mouSTer</a> adapter with a USB mouse. This is the demo- and game-machine, optimized for fast disk-image swapping rather than serious productivity.</li>

<li><strong>The <a href="/retro/mega-st-high/">"High" machine</a></strong>, the workstation build. A <a href="/retro/monsterboard/">MonSTerBoard</a> adds 8MB of AltRAM, IDE storage, and flashable TOS (currently TOS 2.06), running Geneva for real multitasking. An <a href="/retro/et4000-experiment/">ET4000 graphics card</a> drives a dedicated monitor for higher resolutions. A <a href="/retro/netusb/">NetUSBee</a> adapter, an <a href="/retro/eiffel/">Eiffel interface</a> for a PS/2 keyboard and mouse, and a new <a href="/retro/stpsu/">STPSU</a> for clean, stable power round it out.</li>
