      I guess if you flew, you'd have trouble with security, so you have to drive. But man, that is a long way, and am glad you made it, although I wasn't at the show (I had no way to get there.)

      Glad you got back ok :)

      The big problem with flying is getting all the game systems, displays, cables, power supplies, controllers, games for sale, and everything else up to Portland (or any show I attend) safely and at a reasonable cost. I'm not sure there's a better way to do it without significantly paring down the booth.

  7. Utah has some of the most bizarre traffic patterns I've ever seen.

      Shhhh... it's always more enjoyable when they don't know they're being watched!

  9. You might be tired when you turn the wrong way down a busy four-lane one way street. To be fair, it is at night and it is in a strange city.

      I hear ya Nathan. I grew up in NW Washington and every trip into Seattle was a nightmare. I did computer repair work in the 90's and I dreaded when I had to go to downtown Seattle for an on-site repair.

      Grand, MLK, Broadway, or Wiedler?

      Four lanes, London's roads/streets are just about wide enough for one lot/row of traffic going in that direction

  10. Frenzy has been committed to silicon. Resistance is futile! Pray I don't alter it further. I'm a leaf on the wind. The spice expands consciousness.

      Yes, but Nathan's comment isn't true either if mine isn't.

  11. Create a stylized version of the AtariAge logo! If I use it, I'll send you a free homebrew! Details here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/217185-create-a-great-atariage-d

  12. A big Thank You to Sega for not making their 2600 carts stackable..

    1. SoulBlazer

      SoulBlazer

      I think M-Network did that with their 2600 games also.

    2. Albert

      Albert

      Oh, those M Network cart are the worst! They don't stack AT ALL, and you can't even stand them up nicely ind drawers!

      Mattel went the cheap route: they re-used their Intellivision shells and snapped a 2600 "adapter" onto the end.

  13. Don't drop Commodore 1702 monitors onto the floor from a height of three feet. They don't like that.

      One more for the AA FAIL calendar.

    2. Nathan Strum

      Nathan Strum

      I'd buy that calendar.

      How do they do from two feet?

    3. Albert

      Albert

      They do just fine, if they land on a pillow.

  22. Just added the third-party themes (skins) back to forum! You can choose from five additional themes by clicking the "Change Theme" link near the bottom of the page.

      woohoo! Deflection skin! thanks Albert! (it's the little things)

  23. If you're unable to post, clear your browser's cache and that should fix the issue.

      Just a thought. The "SPY" column, don't like it above Recent status Updates personally. Please default status updates to top right column.

  24. Forums back online. If you see anything strange, please let me know. Will get extra skins back online later today, along with two new skins.

      I like the spy section above the recent status updates. But clicked your "forum upgraded" there and tried to reply and was told "your post is empty"!

    2. Albert

      Albert

      That's because I accidentally posted the topic twice. Must have clicked on the one for the topic I deleted. :)

      My "post is empty" problem is everywhere, not for a deleted topic.
