Agree that this belongs in the portable section. I will do that.

Also, that commercial is funny, with the husband playing and his adoring wife watching.

The information / review of the system is precise and includes technical details (like in your other portable review sections). Just a thought - it would be a shame to see this review to be lost in the archives after time.

Well done Retro!

Thanks Terry, much appreciated.

Thanks Dave, sounds good to me. As for the advertising, I wonder if Milton Bradley had some strange marketing campaign where they wanted to convince the world that the Microvision was meant for adults (i.e., not a toy) and that it was fun for couples. I say that because of that husband/wife couple in the commercial, and the flirty couple playing Microvision together in Friday the 13th Part II (which I assume MB paid for as product placement). While I've joked before that the Microvision is a chick magnet, maybe that was actually Milton Bradley's ill-advised marketing strategy!

Guys,
As you suggested, I put this review under the Portables drop-down menu so it will be more prominently featured.
