Guess
what?
I bought?














A PONG table from the 70s, man! I picked it up at an antique store for 75 bucks while I was away in Florida last week! I think I win the internet or something. It's not completely in working condition, it'll turn on, but the display is off, the bars cover the whole screen and there's no ball, so I can't play it. I'll have to get a repair guy outa the phone book, huh?

I'll take some pictures later and post em, but for now, break open a bottle of champange! Or however it's spelled! I don't care, I got a PONG machine!

    That is pretty damn awesome.

    Verdict will be upgraded to 'The awesomest awesome that ever did awesome. For SCIENCE!' if you get it to work.

    Indeed. That'd be some sweet swag if it worked.

    Does it have online capabilities? I mean, I'm not interested unless it has at least 10 gigs on the hard drive.

    I think people in the eighties would shit their pants if they had a 10 gig hard drive.

    i remember thinking that a terrabyte was unfathomably large in the mid 90's. Oh, and I knew a dude in high school that had a Ms. Pac-Man Table that actually worked... though it would over heat if you had it on for more than an hour or two.
