Looking at the CSS (the HTML says nothing about fonts), body is recommended as Verdana, headings are recommended as any of several sans-serifs including Helvetica, Arial, Lucida and Verdana. They're also doing some specific things with sizing and spacing.

Basically, your mileage varies depending on your configuration.

Ah, my PSP takes up too much of my time already, but that Multari really is a nice looking hand-held game machine.]]>Apr 10th 2008 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/10/the-multari-atari-2600-gets-elegantly-shoved-in-a-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/10/the-multari-atari-2600-gets-elegantly-shoved-in-a-handheld/
Kids these days. If they only knew how big a deal the 2600 was at the time (and later, the NES), they'd have more respect. Then again, maybe they wouldn’t.

It's not at all like those lame "stick the guts of one thing into another thing" mods. Most of the time, those aren't actually modified-- They just cram the exact same components into a different enclosure. Whether it be a DVD Player in an AT-AT toy, or an NES in a Simpsons playset, they're all just weak wastes of time.

THIS guy, though, did some actual work, and MADE a case.

Kudos to you, sir, for showing people how it's done.]]>Apr 10th 2008 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/10/the-multari-atari-2600-gets-elegantly-shoved-in-a-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/10/the-multari-atari-2600-gets-elegantly-shoved-in-a-handheld/

Still, this is a nice portable unit. Just wish there was a lot more games than 32. The Atari 2600 games are so small, it should be trivial to stuff 'em all in.

Actually, if I took a few minutes, I could probably think of 50 more I'd want. The old Atari is still my favorite game system...]]>Apr 11th 2008 1:56PM
