Atari game is on the back side of the disks.

Disk 1 Side 0
Disk 2 Side 0

Farb: The Atari sides have a different sector interleave than our Software Toolworks dumps. If I ignore the interleave difference, disk 2 is identical to our verified dump. Disk 1, however, also has data differences and I'm not confident that the anomalies on track 39 ought to be there.
