Block is the computer Strong Bad uses to answer email from his Eastern European viewers. It has been seen only in the email "other days", and we are not sure whether he still uses it or whether it will make any further apperances. It has a screen like the Compy 386 and scrolling horizontal lines like the Tandy 400. The screen font is thick and utilitarian, with the exception of the question mark, which is notably thin. This machine lacks contrast buttons or any other interactive feature, unlike Strong Bad's other personal computing systems.
Fun Facts
- The term "Block" is probably in reference to Poland (and most of Eastern Europe) once being part of the "Soviet Bloc".
