So I go to service one of my accounts today(not arcade related) and one of the managers comes up to me and asked if I work on computers. Like most of us I dabble in computers, arcade games, electronics etc. So I told him I do.
He goes on to tell me that he has a ms pac at his house that is showing "squiggly lines on the screen". I explained that it could be a few things, from a monitor to a pcb. during the conversation he mentioned a couple of times that it came out in 1981. I asked him about why he was so sure on the date, he said that is when he bought it, he had ordered it new from a local distributor.
The game has been in his living room since new(no kids).
So I started to explain to him that they are not computers and he stopped me and stated "he knew that, but one of the guys he works with told him you can put a computer in it and play LOTS of games".
Anyway I talked him out of it and explained what a multi is, which made him happy since he just wanted the "computer" in it so he could play galaga.
So the game is safe, I will be putting him a multi together that he is paying for and he is going to give me the ms pac for "hooking him up".
Just thought I would share.
