That is pretty sweet.
I enjoyed playing the Tapper at CAX that had all the Simpsons characters on it. That was awesome.
I also played the machine right next to it, just like a Tapper game, but you cut down trees. I cant think of the name, but that was a fun, fun game too.

That would be TIMBER
Maybe it is just me but I can't stand it when people list stuff in ALL CAPS 25 point COMIC SANS. I mean come on, it looks unprofessional and it's difficult to read.
Why oh why?

Ok, getting ready to show my age again. But back when I started using computers. All we had was UPPERCASE.
My first computer was a TRS-80 Model 1 with 4K RAM, Anyone else?

Sorry jowseph, that Tapper and Timber are not for sale.
However there's a good chance they will be at CAX next year.

Do you know who owned the Tapper with the Simpsons on it? I know a guy in Iowa that was having one made for a charity auction, but never heard who won it.

HA! My first computer was a TRS-80 as well! Don't know about model # but I remember having to hand code games from a magazine and it took hours to type everything in properly and then I had no way to save it so as soon as I turned the PC off goodbye game....lol. I remember hand coding a game just like Arkanoid but I think it was called Powerball. I hated the TRS-80.... what a piece of crap compared to the real cool computers like the Amiga.
Apple IIc all the way! Conan the Barbarian.... Space Quest.... Legacy of the Ancients... Russki Duck....
Commodore 64.... Silent Service.... Gunship.... Destroyer best three c64 games out there. I had a million games on the C64... Load"*",8,1 LOL!
Amiga... Shadow of the Beast... Echelon... Blood Money... Deluxe Paint... Turbo Silver (took hours to render one ray traced frame, lol)

Not a fair comparison. You had a TRS-80 model 1 which came out in '77 and you're comparing it to the Amiga that came out 8 years later!
8 years of computer improvements was FOREVER in those days. '85 to '77 was night and day different.
