Now to work on that component video output hack for my 7800 that I found...]]>Oct 1st 2007 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/Oct 1st 2007 1:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/http://www.atariage.com/7800/faq/index.html#cat2_11

I don't know how similar the video hardware in the 2600 and 7800 are as I've never owned a 2600, but since they both use a simple RF modulator I can't imagine it would be too different. ]]>Oct 1st 2007 1:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/happy-30th-birthday-atari-2600/i didn't know i shared my b-day with the good ol 2600!
