Happy 30th Birthday Atari!

The Atari 2600 just turned 30 this October!

It is hard to believe that just 30 years ago we were entertained by 2 white lines on each of a black screen and one big square pixel moving between them. Those were the times when this is what you called "Playing tennis on my Atari".

Of course, after this came the amazing graphics of space invaders, Pac-man and more...

I remember I used to go to my cousin's house every chance I had to play these games since he had one back than. It's amazing to see what the graphics of games look like today on Xbox 360 and PS3.

Can you recognize yourself here in this ad:

God I'm getting old....
