mark #1 Posted July 19, 2003 So I went to a garage sale and picked up 2 six switch consoles and some other stuff. I brung em both home and cleaned them and behold they work. In one of them there was a piece of paper that says "17 APR 1980". It is typed in blue ink. Anyone know what this means and has anyone found something like this in their console? I can provide pic if needed for identification. I don't know how to post pics on the forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Room 34 #2 Posted July 20, 2003 It is the date of manufacture. All 2600 consoles (pre-crash) have these. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
