Description: Atari Translator A/B Disk. Atari created these programs to patch the XL/XE Operating Systems to work with older disk based programs. When Atari first introduced the Atari 1200XL people found many older programs would not work due to changes in the Operating System. The 2 biggest problems were increased memory size and 2 joysticks instead of 4. From Wiki: The XL/XE Atari 8-bit models all had OS revisions due to added hardware features and changes. But this created compatibility issues with some of the older software. Atari responded with the Translator Disk, a floppy disk which loaded the older 400/800 Rev. 'B' or Rev. 'A' OS into the XL/XE computers. "If you do not understand something about an auction then PLEASE contact us and get an answer you understand before purchasing.
