Title: Modern Marvels 01-21-11 Post by: DorothyMacaw on January 20, 2011, 05:31:01 PM Hi Y'all
I was looking at the television listings for tomorrow ( January 21 2011 ) and see that on the HISTORY CHANNEL the program MODERN MARVELS has a segment called "Coin Operated II" it was first shown November 12th 2010. It covers "historic one-armed bandits, computerized slot machines; the wackiest vending machines" It is on my west coast feed of DirecTV at 8 p.m. (269 HISTHD) I just thought I'd throw this out in case you missed it before. - Dorothy Title: Re: Modern Marvels 01-21-11 Post by: poppo on January 20, 2011, 05:49:37 PM .... the wackiest vending machines" Not slot related, but I got a kick out of this one I saw one day at a rest stop. Thought about how to fit one in my game room. :96- Title: Re: Modern Marvels 01-21-11 Post by: daddy2yea on January 20, 2011, 10:27:07 PM Hey Dorothy thanks for the info. Missed it the first time around. On at 11:00pm on the east coast.

I still have the thing sitting on my friend's DVR until I can get it to DVD to save. It's a great episode, with some footage from inside IGT's factory, and a bit about older coin-operated slots at the Eastside Cannery and new server-based slots at Aria.

I don't have cable. Title: Re: Modern Marvels 01-21-11 Post by: Yoeddy1 on January 21, 2011, 06:32:07 PM Bunker, just stay up all night until it comes on. ;)
Title: Re: Modern Marvels 01-21-11 Post by: stayouttadabunker on January 21, 2011, 06:53:39 PM Because it's a probably a copy-writed program - I'll copy it.... :72-
