Your picture of the 1979 Intellivision console is wrong. That's the much later released Intellivision II model.

Look at the title of the picture. I credit it as an Intellivision II, not an Intellivision. It was the best picture I had. Perhaps a caption would clarify. I make it a point not to steal other people's photos, and for the most part, all of the photos were company photos (ad copy, promo photos, etc).
I do admit that one phot was blatently stolen. The Atari 2600 photo was stolen from an eBay auction. DOH! I didn't have or couldn't find an Atari ad or promo photo that represented the Atari 2600 clearly.
Certainly my column is just a reference, and you run an entire site based on home game consoles, but accuracy is important and I have every intention on implimenting the corrections you offered.
Gotta admit though, not bad for writing most of that off the top of my head.
I didn't have my ColecoVision until '83. I thought it missed the '82 Christmas. My bad. I didn't have my Vectrex until '84. That's my ColecoVision in the picture. My Vectrex I sold ten years ago for $50.
I was probably thinking about when Milton Bradley bought it from GCE, although I have to admit that my Vectrex was a GCE unit and not a Milton Bradley unit.
Jesus! Of ALL OF THE SPECS I got wrong, those two should've been the ones I got right!
Thanks for all of the wonderful factoids!
