I like how the gun isn't day-glo.

Chrome and gold ones too. http://www.nds-central.com/

Tally another one for Lynx disassembly assumption. Extra Atari points for the Fossil Breakout watch. Heh.

Those are really cool. Instead of seperate images for each decade, could you remove the white space and put them all in one image? So instead of the years being left-justified they'd start as soon as the last year ended, getting rid of all the whitespace. I think that'd be better suited towards making a poster. Either way though it's cool and much respect to you.

There's something comforting in knowing that fanboys will keep arguing the merits of systems long after they're both irrelevant and the companies have gone out of business. The Amiga excelled in video applications, and due to the relatively cheap cost of the Video Toaster it was used by many television stations and production companies. The ST on the other hand was the first with MIDI and thus paved the way for computer use in professional audio composing and editing. They're both notable and important for different reasons, neither of which is the games.

I think you should put them in 6 rows of 6 and make a nice square.

Thats a good point and usually how I've resorted to hooking up RF-only systems. It's a shame there's not a small non-PC based dedicated TV tuner that takes coax in and has video out. At least not that I could find through google.

Since it outputs composite, svideo, and RGB ...... it should just be a matter of wiring up the pins to the cables, maybe tear apart an RF convertor so you can use the connector. http://pinouts.ru/Video/AtariJaguarAV_pinout.shtml Simple enough that I wouldn't even call it a mod, unless you go wild and open up the case to mount jacks directly on the motherboard.... but if you can do it without opening the case, I don't see the point in that.

Congrats!

Correct, you got it. The MSX had a 3.5" floppy available, and at least some models had them integrated by 1985. http://www.faq.msxnet.org/msx1.html has a picture of one from Spectravideo.

With a keyboard built in? I am talking Atari 1040ST and Amiga 500 style here... First? Are there any other "console" computers besides those two series that have integrated 3.5" drives? It seems like a pretty small classification to begin with.

also ...how to deal with frustration when you knock the stupid bridge into the wall.

Wtf are codings? It's been discussed at length in other places, but the basic gist is that it's flame-retardant chemicals that are added to the plastic to reduce the chance of fire. The discoloration is those chemicals breaking down. It's got little to do with either UV or oxidation, though they probably speed the process. It's mixed in with the plastic itself, and broken plastic shows that the discoloration happens inside as well. The decay isn't reversible. What's strange is that sometimes it's just one part of it, suggesting that they had different batches/manufacturing lines for the different pieces. I'd guess that the heat from the motherboard helps to accelerate the bottom, but that's inconsistent as some are completely yellowed. You also see it on carts as well, though as a darker grey it shows up a lot less than the SNES's periwinkle. If it bothers you that much, I'd suggest giving it a coat of Krylon Fusion. Maybe try black for a custom look? Anyway, for anal collector types (hey I'm one too) there's no real solution. You might as well be bitching about Actiplaque.

Thanks. Seems like Firefox would make it easier to figure out how to do that. I didn't know there was a whole other batch of stuff to delete. It can't really, at least not easily, since Flash is a plug-in and essentially a separate program. I'm not 100% sure, but I think that's also why non-fullscreen flash games require you to click on them before you can use keyboard commands, since it's a new application and doesn't have the focus yet. Your point is valid though, it *should* be easier. The core problem is that applications are used by people who don't want to deal with data management. A much better way would be to restrict every application from only writing to it's own directory, and a common one the user designates. That's *somewhat* done with the username directories in windows, but as far as I know nothing forces information to be there. It can just as easily be in a registry entry or under Program Files, or possibly it likes to write config files to My Documents. Who knows. I'm pretty sure there are guidelines that MS sets out in it's API documentation, but without being a requirement to compile/run they're of little practical benefit.

Indeed. There's that FCC notice on most RF devices, explaining how they 1) "must not cause interference" and more importantly 2) "must accept any unwanted interference". By the wording you'd think it'd prohibit shielding altogether.
