 		Somebody please throw me a bone?
These are the *exact* names I've found for these systems:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1: Atari 2600
2: Sinclair ZX81
3: Acorn BBC Micro B
4: MITS Altair 8800b(t)
5: Commodore 64
6: Nintendo Entertainment System
7: Apple II (*not* a IIe)
8: Sinclair zx Spectrum
9: NeXTcube (yes, a one-word logo on back)


I've tried different wording for:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
3: BBC Micro
3: Acorn BBC Micro
3: Acorn BBC Micro B
3: Acorn BBC Micro Proton
3: Acorn BBC Micro Model B/32K
3: Beeb (nickname)
4: MITS Altair 8800b(t)
4: MITS Altair 8800b
4: Altair 8800b(t)
4: Altair 8800b
6: Nintendo Entertainment System
6: NES (nickname)
8: Sinclair zx Spectrum
8: Speccy (nickname)

... to no avail. But, with so many ways to name them, I could have *one* wrong, and never know which it is! Do I have too much info? Wrong wording? Is one of them altogether just plain *wrong*? Please help! Crying or Very sad

 		Thank you very much, Dusty! Wink
I wonder if my problem was something so minor as *not* using *The* in front of 'Next Cube'? That's the only thing I didn't try. Sheesh! Rolling Eyes

Keep up the great work! For what it's worth (at this point, I just think it's interesting), you have a total of *333* points to go, out of a possible 2,162 pts for this wave. Maybe 'they' are trying to tell us we'll *never* solve those 6 cards? Razz

 		Well then, just shoot me! Embarassed
I was trying as many different combinations as there are phone numbers. The harder I tried, the more confused and discouraged I got. I was obviously making it too hard! Rolling Eyes

 		I just can't to get these entered correctly. Can someone help! I even tried to copy your entries into solve boxes (I know it's cheap but after all the seaching to find these answers then having a space of capital letter kicking my butt is ridiculous) I spent more time on Google Images that I thought humanly possible. Thanks again.

 		just entered the following:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
atari 2600
sinclair zx81
bbc micro
altair 8800b
commodore 64
nes
apple iie
sinclair zx spectrum
next cube


...and had it accepted. afaik, the answers are case INsensitive so that shouldn't make a difference. spaces will, though...

(and thanks for the hint for number nine - i don't think i would've ever remembered that particular bunny - although it should have been obvious .. perplex city .. the hunt .. the number nine .. Smile
