Does any one remember some of the real "must miss" machines whose only purpose was to send the ball screaming down a dump chute upon hitting anything. I got a chance to see the 80 winter olympics at lake placid. There they had some sort of "concept sculpture" out on the lake. It consisted of various all white houses with different all white things inside. Inside one was ten or so pinball machines. The only problem was that they were all painted white, and the machines had the sound turned way down. Also, they were set to infinitely easy; they were so many free games on them, you had to try to lose. It was so easy, and so uncolorful, it was boring. Was this what the "artist" (I use the term loosely) was trying to say?
