Colorado B.S. Thread

You fellas are all right in my book.

 

I'm subscribed to their `NOTIFY ME` list... hoping it comes out this month so I can get the half-price shipping and 10% off AUGUST sale.

I donated my Atari with E.T. and other classics to a museum a few years ago.

 

My parents still have our original TRS80! Best game EVER!

 

No Atari? Or Colecovision?

I remember driving my dad’s car and having the giant 8 track adapter sticking out so I could play cassettes.

 

What was funny once we got the Tape Drive...LOL....was getting games like Robotron and Zaxxon....and the BEST GAME EVER.....CENTIPEDE!

And actually taking the time to solder a chip to make it ....wait for it....an 8k computer....LOL

I should have saved mine for you.

But the universe isn’t constant.....

 

At the time, we could not afford the "game consoles"

We did get the "TANDY" versions though.....




And then wait for it....

TANDY BASEBALL!

Kind of funny how technology goes from the "cutting edge" to where we are now!

 

I'm just quoting... Let's all "ride" it out and see how it goes.

 

^ my first computer

 

Sooooo....off this thread...can anyone help me to reinstall the panels I accidentally tore off that do NOT go back????

I might have lost a fastener...but the electrics work and I stink at fasteners

 

I still have my Atari, Intellivison, Colecovision, Nintendo, Sega Genesis, PS1, PS2 and a PS4 at my house.

 

Why would you want to heat hot water?

You have an indoor gas meter in the way with an unvented regulator. Worst idea ever.

 

What you can't see is the wall mounted space heater behind the water heat. Literally a space heater mounted on the wall

 

That should work nicely for igniting the gas that the regulator burps.
Didn't you just move? Is this your new place?

 

I actually worked at a Radio Shack in my youth.

Oh man, I loved the Tandy handheld football game!

Yup fun when sent inside for punishment!

 

I haven't moved in yet. Stopped by the apartment complex today and walked through it. Isn't "completed" until the 16th

I didn't even know I had gas in the apartment, maybe for the water heater?
