  2. If it's the same Telstar I have (Pong-like clone), the power supply and cable would be easy enough to replace, but the RF cable was permanently attached, so if it's missing, you'll probably have to open it up and solder on a new one.
  3. I swear, Caremark is the worst company I've ever had to deal with. It's like they go out of their way to create problems.

  4. So weird. I'm watching Bananarama perform live on Fox News.

      The most newsworthy thing to ever appear on Fox News. Heck, the only newsworthy thing ever on any U.S. 24 hour news channel.

      ONN is pretty informative, though - as is the Daily Show on CC.

  5. Yeah, I noticed that way back when the game was new. Still, I always loved the imagic box art. My favorite of all the companies doing 2600 games.
  6. Yeah, that would be very cool. Even with it's simplistic graphics (compared to modern games), Star Raiders had a way of really pulling you into the simulation like no other game. With a cockpit, I can only imagine the effect would be even greater.
  7. The mother ships are pretty clearly based on Cylon baseships from the original Battlestar Galactica. The artwork was probably done before the game was finished.

      Have you Americans heard of this great new invention called live broadcasting?

      Americans have, but NBC has not, hence our complaints.

  10. Watching the queen and James Bond jump out of the helicopter, Owen asked me, "Do you think that's a stunt double?" #BestRoyalEntranceEver

  11. I'm in, provided I can play using Stella. Team Mexico.
  12. Rough day at work so far...

  13. Going to fly up to Brooksville for some touch-and-goes. (Checked in at Tampa North Aero Park) http://t.co/brMviUyq

  14. Going flying tomorrow at noon to practice some landings. Anyone want to come along?

  15. I prefer New York style pizza, but Chicago style hot dogs. In case you were wondering.

      I've never had the Chicago style pizza with the sauce on top.

  16. Agreed, it is a great controller indeed. I went through a phase where I used it exclusively on my Atari, although lately I've been using the CX-40-like controllers from the 'Flashback 2' and '3'. (I like the ones from the '2' better.) I probably ought to dig up one of my Genesis controllers, though, and work it into the mix...

  19. Guys are here this morning to install our new upstairs A/C. It will finally get below 80F upstairs in our house when they're done.

  20. Strange, will look into it. Perhaps Rainbow needs to map the keyboard when it gets focus and unmap it when it loses focus... That would be fantastic if you could do that! That way all my other apps would behave normally with the keyboard.
  21. On IE 10 (Metro), there is no error message, and you get the little green box at the top of the page like it's thinking about posting, but it never does. Again, the desktop version of IE 10 works just fine (that's what I'm using now). I suppose this could be an issue with the Release Preview of Windows 8 and maybe it will be fixed in the RTM version.
  22. Just thought I'd let you know that there is a problem with the forums running on IE 10 (Metro) in Windows 8. The Post option does not work. Fortunately, there is a workaround. You can run the desktop version of IE 10 and everything works fine. EDIT: You can post a new topic, but not post replies.
  23. Nice job with the emulator, but it seems that it remapped my keyboard when I ran it; I'm guessing so that it would match the old Atari keyboard. Unfortunately, it didn't unmap my keyboard when I shut it down and I had to reboot to get everything back to normal.
