This is an obscure system, but no doubt there are those few webizens who will remember it fondly from their youth--after that jolt of "MOM, this isn't a Commodore 64!! You got the wrong thing!! Oh, well." LOL.

I thought this part of the article was hilarious:

Funny too that it says "Written by: Eddie Kantor" and "Concept by: Art Carpet". In the manual it just says "by Art Carpet". Seems to me the guy actually doing the coding is more important than the guy saying, "Hey, why don't you make a solitaire game, Eddie?", but that's just me.

Still laughing at that one...! It's hard to imagine some cheesy monster who actually used the moniker Art Carpet on a professional release. Geez, the industry was soooo amateurish back in those days.
