Now that's a good question. The Atari 8-bit FAQ says 'Atari had sold 35,000 400/800 computers through 1980' and since it was obviously put together by Atari enthusiasts I wouldn't expect it to shoot low on the estimate. But elsewhere, a figure nearly an order of magnitude higher has been suggested, which would indeed have outsold Apple. Which figure is correct?
- protomyth 8y agoWell, the Atari 8-bit FAQ is just off by a magnitude. http://www.retrocomputing.net/info/siti/total_share.html http://www.retrocomputing.net/info/siti/total_share.html is ok and well sourced but they do skip some models from Atari and Commodore.
