What the fuck?  why don't we just include calculators in the deal?  Im sure
that some TI calculator has sold more units than an atari f**kin 2600
(I had an atari 2600 GAME MACHINE and a TI calculator but I like my amy
SLIGHTLY more)  Shit, why not include individual chips, for god's sake. How
about the best selling transistor?  Best selling battery?  (My Heavy Duty
Ever-ready is better than your Energizer!)  Sorry, just trying to sober up!
(just kidding mom?!)
