Nope, there's nothing wrong with the
color settings on your monitor and no this is not some homebrewed garage
spray paint special. This is an actual orange molded plastic Atari
600XL computer. So you ask simply.... WHY!?!?!?!? Well, actually
there is a simple explanation. When a plastic mold die is being
tested to make sure it meets all of the customers specifications and
there are no defects, instead of wasting production ABS plastic
sometimes whatever scrap is lying around is used. In this particular
case, someone actually used ORANGE. (Who knows, maybe it was Halloween
:-) So although completely identical to its more conservative
Off-white/dark brown 600XL kin, the Orange 600XL is certainly an eye
catching computer.
