Our tables at the City of STEM were very popular with the parents and their
children! The parents typically would say, "This is a floppy disk" and hold it
up for the kids to see. The children would typically say, "I'm not used to
this controller," in
reference to the Competition Pro-style joysticks. :)
The SX-64 died after 3 hours of running, the Amiga 1200 died after 6 1/2
hours, and the Ultimate 64 lasted the entire event. At the end, I had to tell
the line of parents and children, "Sorry... sorry." Note to self -- always
bring back-up computers to a
public event!
