Yeah, I noticed that and pointed it out to my brother. The conversation went
something like:
"Hey, is that a Commodore PET in the background? Wait.. it IS a PET.. Heh."
"Phil, you are a total geek. I knew you'd say something like that."
"Oh, did you recognise it too?"
"No, but I new it was damn old.. I mean, it even has a built in monitor and
keyboard!"
I think I need to get out more...
