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.

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.  Tongue Out

Indeed, set your DVR's or DVD-R's.  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.
