Glad it wasn't just me. The text crossed the threshold from "over-clever" into plain convoluted.  :dizzy:

Panic is a software developer that was definitely not around in the 80s.  So the blog entry is joking about what their titles would have been like if released on the 2600. Transmit is an FTP client. Unison is peer to peer file sharing software etc...

So a FAKE story about finding old art? Lame.
DOn't get me wrong, I love the art, but the way they presented this is LAME!
