I know lots of people have probably already seen this, but everytime I show it to someone they get a good laugh out of it.  So for those who haven't seen it, here you go.

This is an old computer ad for the Tandy 5000 MC Professional System ...

That is a good one.  I bought one from Ebay a while back for the Adam computer and had it mounted for hanging up and it is on my wall in my home.

Check its price. Only one in million might be having computer with them at that time. Now, we should keep it in a museum.

I guess there is a mistake somewhere or the pictured has been edited in photoshop.
