  • MiSTer with the Minimig-AGA core, the most hardware-authentic option. Native resolution tops out around 800×600, with RTG (Picasso96) support pushing that up to 1080p. Timing accuracy and near-zero input latency make it the pick for demos and cycle-sensitive software.
  • Amiberry on a Raspberry Pi, the flexible option. Running headless (no X11 desktop, straight from the console/KMS framebuffer) is the single biggest performance lever, the difference between a laggy desktop and a snappy 60fps Workbench.
  • The HDF minefield, hard disk image files either carry an RDB partition table or they don't, and getting the geometry parameters (surfaces/sectors/reserved blocks) wrong produces the classic "Not a DOS disk in device DH0" error. Reformatting through HDToolBox from a fresh install is often faster than debugging geometry math.

  • Picking a monitor, a 4:3 panel at native 1280×1024 (like an older NEC MultiSync) gives the most period-accurate Workbench experience; anything widescreen needs scaling compromises.

    What started with childhood memories of an Atari ST and an Amiga 500 turned into a full-blown home retro-computing corner after 2020. Here's a snapshot of the whole setup, which machines are actually set up and running right now, and which are boxed and ready to use on demand.

    The study

    -

    The study holds the bulk of the serious gear. The MiSTer FPGA and the MiST FPGA are set up here, both connected to a NEC 1970NXp. The Mega ST 4 "Low" machine is set up and running on a Dell monitor that can handle 15kHz, serving as the demo- and game-machine.

    The rest of the Atari hardware is stored here but not set up, mainly for lack of space:
