Checkin' SBemails at the office.

The Corpy NT6 is the computer used by Strong Bad (and possibly Senor Cardgage) when working in The Office. Apparently, Strong Bad uses it for third-quarter projection analysis spreadsheets, checking email, and talking to the people on his Buddy List. It gets a Flamboyant System Error in Biz Cas Fri 1, and explodes (thanks to Homestar's 3 GB email attachment) in Biz Cas Fri 3. He salvages his Buddy List, which consists of Strong Mad and The Cheat, after the explosion by backing it up.

Its name was first shown in from work, when Strong Bad tried to stealthily check an email on it, and is a play on the Compy 386 and possibly Windows NT. "Corpy" is a portmanteau of "Compy" and "corporate".

In the Puppet series, the Corpy NT6 is a 1979 Apple II monitor and a Dell QuietKey keyboard.

The Corpy made its comeback as Strong Bad's new email-checking computer in imaginary, apparently "borrowed" from his workplace.
