This is awesome, the Atari 2600 was my first ever 'computer' and I still can remember the thrill of finding and playing a new game (and of course blowing into the cartridge to get the game to load :) )

Its limited by todays standard, which makes me excited to think about the technologies we use today that will be obsolete in 20 years time.


"the now infamous Atari 2600"

What makes the Atari 2600 infamous?


It is infamously spending time in my basement beguiling my kids who love the games.


What doesn't make it infamous? Yeah. Think about that.


Typos FTW :)
