Default Strong Bad and Pocket PCs

(This is the only place I can talk about this kind of stuff!) :lol:

The latest Strong Bad e-mail includes a reference to Pocket PCs, so it must be good!

Actually I'm really not getting into the new "Lappy" concept. I hope the next e-mail is better. :?

I was hoping I wasn't the only one to notice that. I was secretly hoping Strong Bad would get a Newton to check his email on (what with his love of crapp... err, antiquated technology), or other handheld device, but it was not meant to be. I guess we'll have to make do with Pom-Pom's Palm-Palm.

There's no contrast control on the Lappy but did you notice that you can press on the LCD screen? Click and hold... woooo....

Saw the Pocket PC reference. It was too quick. :P

It's not that bad. I found the email to be decently funny. It's a nice change from his previous Atari-esque and 386-esque "Compy"s.

Definitely. Hopefully Strong Bad will replace that Lappy 486 with a Pocket PC. :P

Lappy 486's screen was highly reflective. It must have incorporated CSV technology. Fancy that! (On such lacklustre specs otherwise)...

I like the new font, it's a lot cleaner than the 386 font.
