Dig that groovy console!

    Insanity would ensue if video games have not evolved!

    This is definitely an interesting fact man, I never knew they were around for that long. I think I've played something like that before actually, I can kind of envision the concept of the game in my head at least.

    Yep. There have been computer geeks longer than there have been computers.

    huh? So people in the 60s did stop with all their free love long enough to invent something.... Kinda surprising really!

    That's not a bad sized computer for 1961.
