WHAT THE EXPERTS HAD TO SAY
ANAL.O.G. 400/800 MAGAZINE said in a 32K RAM
board comparison test: "The Mosaic 32K RAM showed no
sign of interference and gave the best screen clarity" and
"Mosaic uses what we
feel
are the highest quality
components which may
improve
reliability".
INTERFACE AGE said after replacing the Atari memory
board with a Mosaic 32K RAM: "Once in place there is no
noticeable change in screen clarity" and "in
view
of its
excellent performance it should be a serious choice for those
Atari owners intending to expand their memory"
Each Mosaic RAM board
gives
you more than just the best
screen clarity but also the best in reliability flexibility and
compatibility The Mosaic RAM systems offer you the best in
every way - these features prove it.

THE MOSAIC 32K RAM
For the serious Atari owner. This is the 32K RAM board
you've been hearing about.
It
has every feature you
could want from a RAM board and more features than
any other board offers. Each Mosaic 32K RAM comes with
complete instructions so in a few minutes you will have
expanded your Atari 800 to 48K RAM. The
Mosaic
32K
RAM works as well in the Atari 400, but we suggest the
NEW Mosaic Expander.

This is the most effective way you can expand to 32K
RAM for your Atari 400 computer. And at almost the 16K
price! The revolutionary Mosaic Expander is a memory
board with 16K RAM in place and open slots to add 16K
more from the Atari 16K board that comes with your Atari
400. Each board comes with complete instructions so in a
few minutes you will have expanded to 32K RAM.
