   I have heard that the atari 5200 is just a stripped down 400 with
fancy controller/joysticks.  I looked at one in the store the other
day and it looks like the internals of the cartridges are approx. the
same.  If I buy a 5200 cartidge, remove it from that big hunk of
plastic, will it fit into my Atari 800?  Are the pins compatible?
