What is the original colour of an Atari 400?
My existing one is a kind of beige colour. It looks ok, but is it the natural colour? I'd assumed it was until looking on the web where the colours range from a light grey, through beige to a definite yellow.
Lighting, age or a combination of both would account for this colour range but does anyone know what colour it is suppose to be?
Just to show how lighting can make a difference check out these two photos of my Atari 400. The first is taken with a flash. The second with a flourescent bulb slightly off to one side. You would think they were different machines.
Something to consider when looking at e-bay photos.
