KLund1 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Here is my plate I've drive around Silicon Valley for a few years.I get no looks, honks, beeps, under the breath comments, or fingers !?!

+wood_jl Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Nice! This reminds me of what was kind of a strange parallel with Atari's branding in the late 80's/early-90's. Nissan market its small pickup trucks as XE and ST, at the same time that Atari marketed its computers as such. Weird coincidence? Certainly!

carmel_andrews Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 well, considering that most school children from the 90's onwards have problems counting in DECIMAL, the chances of them knowing let alone counting in binary (or hexadecimal) are about as remote as you or I winning the lottery jackpot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day, I went and parked at Google HQ. It is across the street from a good restaurant that I was to meet some fiends for lunch. I got a good spot near their main utterance. This was a couple months ago. I got there about ½ hour early on purpose. Just for fun I thought I just lean against my car and play one my on phone, and see if anyone would ask me about my license plate. I glanced at each person or group that entered the building. I would say about 40 people pasted me. Most looked 25 years old or less. Only one looked near the age that they might know what an Atari 800 is. Not one looked at it, nor ask a question, or even looked at me funny!!!!??!!!??? These kids have no personal environmentally awareness. Let along notice an odd license plate. I could have been wearing the large bunny suit from Star Trek TOS – Shore Leave and I doubt they would have even looked up from their phones. None would understand what I was wearing!!! Can anyone here translate my plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DarkLord Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Depends. Did you mean for the first characater to be an "I" or a "1"? If it's an "I", then I'd go with "I-5"? If it's a "1", then it's "69"...one of my favorite numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Power Without The Price" bit or "Atari"? Makes me feel old knowing there's a large chunk of the population out there that really has no direct experience with anything "Atari", especially the Atari of old! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
