Atari 520ST
Atari Corporation, ZDA
- Opis:
- Podolgovat računalnik z vgrajeno tipkovnico. [SLO]: Atari 520ST je bil prvi Atari računalnik iz serije ST, ki je bil predstavljen kot odgovor na Apple Macintosh in pojav računalnikov naslednje generacije v 80. letih. To obdobje so zaznamovali 16-bitni sistemi z najmanj 256 KB RAM-a, skupaj z grafičnimi uporabniškimi vmesniki, ki jih je poganjala miška. Za mnoge uporabnike je bil Macintosh ali Atari ST njihova prva izkušnja z računalniki, ki so imeli ikone, kazalnike, menije in barvne zaslone. Vendar pa je bil Atari ST cenovno ugodnejši in oglaševan kot računalnik s podobnimi zmogljivostmi kot Macintosh. Medtem ko je Macintosh pridobil priljubljenost med grafičnimi oblikovalci, je Atari ST postal posebej priljubljen pri glasbenih producentih. Opremljen z motorolo 68000 CPU, 512 KB RAM-a, vgrajenim MIDI priključkom in grafičnim vmesnikom GEM, je hitro pridobil zvesto občinstvo. Kljub nekaterim pomanjkljivostim, kot sta zunanje napajanje in diskovna enota, so bile te težave rešene v kasnejših modelih. Korporacija Atari Corporation je nastala z združitvijo z Atari Inc., podjetjem, ki je zaslužno za pionirstvo na področju arkadnih iger. Atari Corp. je ustanovil nekdanji ustanovitelj Commodoreja in je imel pomemben vpliv na računalniško industrijo v 80. in 90. letih. Serija Atari ST, ki se je začela z 520ST, je bila najpomembnejša linija izdelkov podjetja. Postavila je temelje za 1040ST, prvi računalnik z 1 MB RAM-a in najbolj priljubljen model v seriji. Kljub temu, da je bil Atari ST stroškovno učinkovita in zmogljiva alternativa Macintoshu, pa vendarle ni presegel svojega tekmeca v priljubljenosti. [ENG]: The Atari 520ST was Atari's inaugural computer from the ST series, launched in response to the Apple Macintosh and the emergence of next-generation 1980s computers. This era was marked by 16-bit systems with at least 256 KB of RAM, accompanied by mouse-driven graphical user interfaces. For many users, the Macintosh or Atari ST represented their first experience with computers featuring icons, cursors, menus, and color displays. However, the Atari ST was more affordable and marketed as offering similar capabilities to the Macintosh. While the Macintosh gained popularity among graphic designers, the Atari ST became especially favored by music producers. Equipped with a Motorola 68000 CPU, 512 KB of RAM, a built-in MIDI port, and a graphical interface called GEM, it quickly garnered a loyal following. Despite some drawbacks, such as the external power supply and floppy drive, these issues were addressed in subsequent models. Atari Corporation was formed through a merger with Atari Inc., the company credited with pioneering arcade games. Atari Corp. was established by a former Commodore founder and made a significant impact on the computer industry in the 1980s and 1990s. The Atari ST series, beginning with the 520ST, was the company's most prominent product line. It laid the foundation for the 1040ST, the first computer with 1 MB of RAM and the most popular model in the series. Despite being a cost-effective and capable alternative to the Macintosh, the Atari ST ultimately did not surpass its rival in popularity.
