imagine if the Atari ST booted up into "real mode" and initially only had access to 128 bytes of RAM, for Atari-specific historical cultural legacy reasons

@jk I used to ahve a dream that my Spectrum 128K+2 had a secret mode you could activate with a special code that would reboot it and turn it into a full arcade capable machine with megabytes of ram, blistering 16 million colours, 3d graphics and full 16 bit audio.

@Nine someone should make a cartridge or something that does that. to make your dream come true

@jk i mean it SORTA has in a way cooler way than I could have ever expected, what with ULAPlus: sites.google.com/site/ulaplus/ which, imma be real, is incredible

@jk sure it doesn't have 3d graphics but honestly, the very fact it can have way more colours on screen than the OG spectrum could handle is just... fucking beautiful.
