AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026A2 ATXby Joe's Computer Museum

Adapts a modern PicoPSU and external power brick to the Apple II, II Plus, and IIe.

Human review confirmed that the required A2 ATX core unit could be ordered on 2026-07-24, resolving the conflicting stock displays on the build-a-kit and standalone pages. The optional JCM power lead was also in stock, but it is not keyed and installing it backwards can destroy the power supply, computer, and attached hardware.

AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026A3 ATXby Joe's Computer Museum

Adapts a modern PicoPSU and external power brick to the Apple III and Apple III Plus.

The build-a-kit page showed the core, switch, PicoPSU kit, and non-destructive power lead in stock on 2026-07-24. Buyers must select the complete set of required components rather than treating an inexpensive switch or lead as a full replacement.

Adapts a modern ATX power supply to an IBM XT and recreates the missing -5 V rail.

Retro Electronics listed one board in stock on 2026-07-25. The board does not include an AT P8/P9 connector or its cables; the buyer must supply and solder them.

AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026AVGCART, SUBCART, and DUMBCARTby MiscRetro

A family of SD multicarts for Atari 8-bit computers, ranging from cartridge loading to disk, tape, memory, clock, and audio expansion.

All three product pages showed In stock and Add to cart on 2026-07-24. Optional SIO, ECI, PBI, and DAC cables are separate. SUBCART's extra functions need ECI or PBI, and the maker does not recommend them on a machine with U1MB or another third-party internal memory expansion.

Sold outChecked Jul 24, 2026GS ATXby Joe's Computer Museum

Adapts a modern PicoPSU and external power brick to the Apple IIgs.

The required core unit was out of stock on both its own page and the build-a-kit selector on 2026-07-24, so the available switch and PicoPSU cannot make a complete GS ATX replacement. The power lead's own page showed stock even though the build selector did not.

AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026LC ATX and mAcTX-LCby Joe's Computer Museum and Rabbit Hole Computing

Adapts a modern PicoPSU and external power brick to several Macintosh LC-family computers.

JCM's build-a-kit page showed the core unit, power switch, PicoPSU kit, and LC power lead in stock on 2026-07-24. Rabbit Hole Computing's mAcTX-LC partial kit was sold out. Both paths require a suitable ATX supply or PicoPSU and correct host cabling; mAcTX-LC normally reuses the original supply cable and needs an optional switch for remote power control.

Build itChecked Jul 25, 2026SDrive-MAXby KBr

Emulates Atari SIO disk and cassette drives from microSD storage with an Arduino and touchscreen.

The Brewing Academy kit was sold out on 2026-07-24, but the firmware and build files remain public. Its kit still requires assembly and part of an SIO cable. The official project strongly recommends external power because the approximately 150 mA load exceeds the Atari SIO specification; follow its wiring instructions carefully to avoid back-powering the computer or device.

Build itChecked Jul 27, 2026SIO2Arduinoby Whizzo Software

Turns supported Arduino hardware and a microSD reader into a single Atari 1050-compatible SIO disk emulator.

The maker says SIO2Arduino has been superseded by SDrive-MAX and is no longer actively developed, but its GPL source and detailed wiring instructions remain online. It currently emulates only one D1: drive. A build needs a supported Arduino Uno, Mega 2560/ADK, or Teensy 2.0, a compatible SD reader, the specified SdFat library, an Atari SIO connection, and configuration matched to the chosen hardware. LCD and physical controls are optional.
