AcknowledgementsA technical book like this was a long, time-consuming undertaking. The book took much longer than we ever anticipated because we wanted to write the definitive book on the subject with both meaningful examples and technical accuracy. We wanted a book that was free of errors and with listings that worked,We are indebted to the authors of De Re Atari and the A tart Personal Computer Hardware Manual (Atari Computer, Inc.) who shed light on the inner workings of the computer, and to the author of Mapping the Atari (Compute Books) who produced a comprehensive and valuable reference to all of the memory locations inside the Atari computers. Thanks to Michael Mellin who edited the manuscript without meddling with the content, and to Estela Montesinos who without complaint redid the numerous changes in my diagrams again and again until we got it right.
