This is "chipmunk" site, where Atari owners can enter serial numbers of their Atari computers in database.
It is similar to www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html for Apple computers.
NOTES:
- after submiting new entry, you can add photos! (far right column in "Previous entries" table; latest are on bottom)
- serial number on bottom case of Atari computer and serial number on motherboard are DIFFERENT!
- database is simple json file (click to download). "unixtime" is unique ID for each entry.
- you can edit new entry next 30 days. If you wish to delete entry, please send me an email.
- email addresses will be know only to site owner (Milan Kovač). If you wish to contact someone, please ask Milan.
Pictures of computers are from website homecomputer.de by: Kerstin & Stefan Walgenbach. Many thanks!
To Do list:
- add "resolver" so you will get information like production year, month, factory... based on your serial number
- add "validator" if someone miss one or two digits
- I need specification of Atari serial number structure. For now I have only for Falcon. If you have more, email me.
- add sorting functionality to the table
Additional infos:

- Y4 prefix is a code for EFA company and their Taiwanese subcontractor, Ta Yuan. Interestingly, both the original and C-Lab Falcons start with this prefix, i.e. C-Lab had literally just asked them to fire up machines again.
- main talk thread is at www.atari-forum.com also Falcon serial numbers
