https://space.atari.org/

An independent computer user group

Established April 1982

To learn how SPACE began, see the article "Origins" by SPACE club member Tony Walsh, SPACE Newsletter, July 1996.


Saint Paul ATARI® Computer Enthusiasts (SPACE) is an independent user group of owners of Atari Home Computers. It has been organized by local owners of Atari computers for the purpose of mutual self assistance and sharing of information. It is open to all interested computer enthusiasts.

Benefits of memberships in the group include a monthly newsletter delivered via email, software demonstrations, group purchases, public domain disk(s) of the month (DOM) software at low prices, personal contacts/learning, greater information and awareness on the world of Atari, software at discounted prices from dealers, question and answer session, etc. Come to a meeting to find out more.

The meetings are devoted primarily to the 8-bit Atari computers such as the 400, 800, 600XL, 800XL, 65XE and 130XE. Users of the ST/TT/Falcon range of Atari computers are more than welcome as well.

The SPACE group meets on the evening of the second Friday of each month.

New meeting location as of January 2025:

Wilder Center, 451 Lexington Parkway North, Saint Paul, MN

We meet in either the Merriam Park (2410) room or the Midway (2310) room, which are right next to each other.
