Faicuai Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) ...Gotta love the classy late 70's / early 80's promo material... With is creamy colors and warm atmosphere, they were always classy and inviting, plus being a total pleasure to look at! Now, there is an eerie similarity between Apple's and Atari's material, back in the day... to the point that they look produced by the same firm (!?) Well, I can't tell for sure, but... there are times when things may go a little too far... Has any body ever noticed this? An Apple II, in BED !!?? With TV and disk drive included !? Oh, C'mon !!! Is that a muffin I see up-here? And where the hell is the dog?? What exactly happened here? ?? Is here an equivalent on the Atari side of Brochures? I can't recall a single one...

There was many a time when I was a kid that my Atari 800, my 810 and my TV were on my bed with me. Wasn't that unusual at all back in the early '80s.

Oh, do I remember that picture. It was in the //e owner's manual, IIRC. And yup, I dragged the Odyssey² onto the bed along with a 12" black-and-white TV a few times when I was a kid. Nothing weird about that at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctor_x Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Thats pretty horrendous… also pretty wild that other people are chiming in that theyve done the same thing… ”why, when I was a boy…” the TV was so freaking huge I could barely move it from the TV stand to the floor LOL!

Sugarland Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 They are in their tornado shelter (small and no desk) checking the online emergency weather alerts. I did this all the time. What's wrong with you guys? Those muffins are great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
