I am not Politically Correct, and I don’t find that in “bad taste”.
Oh yeah, he got compensated for this and he’s probably laughed about it himself. Just CYAing. You are quite right about his abilities. Wouldn’t be surprised.
I think you're right.
I would have absolutely gone on that excursion.
Atari used to be up there with Macintosh in the early MIDI days. Wouldn't be at all surprised if they flicked him some tech he did find useful in return for that endorsement. I wouldn't even be surprised if he'd entered into some sort of contractual obligations with Atari. Although I don't care enough to Google it.
Could very well be. Never was aware of the legit ad till now.I could see him obviously being more attuned to Mutron.
Firetraps as well if I recall. Ford payed out large for those ill-considered fuel tanks.Gawd, what utter pieces of crap those both were. I remember them well.
My grandfather owned two Pinto hatchbacks. He bought them used, just to tinker with. (I can’t imagine why.) Cars were his hobby. After the news about the fuel tanks came out, he ended up welding a giant I-Beam across the back of both, just under the bumpers. It solved the “explosion” problem, but didn’t help the fuel savings.
He said he couldn’t conscientiously sell them to anyone without that.
It’s an evil device created some time in the early 1960s designed to lure ignorant children into broadcasting the contents of their stomachs for benefit of chipmunks and squirrels into suburban back yards.
