Are you guys sure that in the Free Country USA world, Tangerine Dreams and The Cheat's new computer are iMacs? I mean, it's obvious that it is the same design and everything, but could it just be a spoof because of the star instead of an apple? It could be an iStar for all we know! | Are you guys sure that in the Free Country USA world, Tangerine Dreams and The Cheat's new computer are iMacs?

Computer Name
just wondering, where did you guys get that The Cheat's computer is called Tangerine Dreams ? I do not recall ever seeing it referred to as such outside of this site. --Anonymous; 05:15, 27 Oct 2004 (MST)
- The name comes from the page title in "weird dream". --InterruptorJones 15:05, 27 Oct 2004 (MST)
- InterruptorJones, I think The Cheat's computer is actually named after the band Tangerine Dream. They were quite popular in the 1980s. --StrongstarRunbad 20:10, 11 Nov 2004 (MST)
- Also, Apple's name for that orange color is Tangerine - see the specifications page. --oddtodd 23:31, 16 Nov 2004 (MST)
- Are you guys sure that's where its name comes from? The song "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" mentions the actual line "Tangerines Dreams."
- No, the Beatles song has "tangerine trees". The word "dream" is not in the song. And please sign posts. - Qermaq - (T/C)

- Yup. —↑Darklinkskywalker|Talk_|i did this stuff_↓ 02:23, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Weirded Out.
Could anyone give a explaination on HOW The Cheat watched Strong Bad awnser the emails regarding The Cheat? Anonymous; 03:43, 27 July 2005 (GMT)
- He was just watching the email, and breaking the fourth wall too, annony Rogue Leader / (my talk)
- It's generally accepted as being The Cheat watching the Strong Bad email over homestarrunner.com. Granted, there are technicalities, and those are The Cheat somehow watching the email live, as well as the fourth wall break mentioned above. But, it's a cartoon, so we can't try to rationalize it too much. —BazookaJoe 19:47, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Tangerine Dream.
Not that this is a sighting or anything, but I thought it was amusing that this company had a facial cleanser of that name. I was at a health food store and saw the box and then copied the website :). --Stux 03:51, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Zoolander
Now, I'm pretty sure there isn't a real Mac that is orange, but in the movie Zoolander, there is a computer that looks exactly like the Tangerine Dreams. SaltyTalk! 04:58, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, there is a real Mac that's orange, a tangerine iMac. Check the Puppet Stuff. Homestar Coder

The logo
The logo on Tangerine Dreams' isn't just on the machine itself: It's also on Strong Bad's first computer (The Tandy 400)
Really iMacs, or just a spoof?
