Post by bassduke49 »

. . . who's going to announce the "Color of the Year" and when? I would imagine all the RIC people are over at the show and won't have the time to visit us here. Any forumites going to the show who can report?

I'm going with the consensus on the General Forum that a blue burst is the most likely choice, even though JH told me that it's a tough color to paint.

If they come out with the V68, I may have to put a kidney (or my left nut) up on ebay!

Though, I doubt it will be this soon after the C64's came out.

Jason, you should know not to do that today. Too many people gripping over what the color is. Image I've searched the web this afternoon and still can't find anything posted anywhere!

Dammit. I was just thinking about outfits I could wear with Berryburst. Don't do this to me, Jason.

I would have figured someone with one of those cell phone cameras would have posted the new color by now. I would laugh if the COY turned out to be no COY. Image
