SpiceWare 9,170 Posted February 23, 2015 Hmm, shouldn't the second switch on the left be in the down position? Quote Link to comment
Thomas Jentzsch 11,475 Posted February 23, 2015 Probably back then, the comics were cheaply made in Taiwan. Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 12,154 Posted February 23, 2015 Hmm, shouldn't the second switch on the left be in the down position? Probably... but we'll assume it's a portable color TV, since it's the same one still in use in the strip today. Just the strip is in black & white. Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 12,154 Posted February 23, 2015 Probably back then, the comics were cheaply made in Taiwan. I hadn't considered sending these over to Taiwan to get made. I wonder if they'd be funnier? Quote Link to comment
Thomas Jentzsch 11,475 Posted February 23, 2015 The spelling would definitely add some extra fun. 2 Quote Link to comment

Albert 34,605 Posted February 24, 2015 Are you old enough to remember why that switch is there? :D Quote Link to comment
Omega-TI 14,677 Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah, unfortunately, I am old enough I just never had a 2600. I went from the Sears Pong Clone to the O2, to TI-99/4A and had a brief Atari stint with the 5200. I loved the 5200's games, but the joysticks did not hold up to play very well, so I bailed on it.

SpiceWare 9,170 Posted February 24, 2015 We often played on a 12" B&W set. Sometimes we left the VCS set for color because it looked better. 1 Quote Link to comment
