Hmm... I sort of agree. It's a classic games machine just like the C64 or
Sinclair
Spectrum. OK it ain't a number crucher but it's still a classic and
introduced a
lot of people to computing (hopefully).

So that's what I meant when I said the box is the only thing this had
going for it :)

I often pick up various models of the 2600 console for as little as $10 or
less with 6-10 games.
Once I get time to get the whole lot of the consoles cleaned up, tested
and possibly repaired, I'd be willing to trade a number of them if anyone
here has interest.
