No, but it does have an EPROM in the extension socket labelled "TOOLKIT

I still have my (almost) fully-loaded Atom
I was hoping that by 'fully loaded' you meant that it had the BBC BASIC,
Econet and Colour boards :-) (I've never seen a real example of the
latter, although I know that there's at least one in the UK) You know, I have a feeling that you can get 7805
regulators that'll
handle 2A each - but maybe they weren't around when the Atom was new.
Even then, just doubling them up and hoping they'd share the load evenly
was always going to be a bit risky.
I did toy with the idea of replacing all its 2114s with 6264s at one
time. Now, of course, I don't think I would.
