Computer Room

[[Image:ComputerRoomFull.PNG|thumb|From [[flashback]], [[pop-up]] and [[monument]]]]
It is in the '''Computer Room''' that [[Strong Bad]] answers most of his [[Strong_Bad_Email|emails]]. It contains his current computer, the [[Lappy 486]], and [[Floppy Disk Container]] resting on a table and a stool. Under the table is a noticeable [[extra plug]] for additional electronics. Strong Bad once tried plugging a pair of [['Lectric Boots]] into this outlet, which subsequently caused the power to go out. Sometimes, the [[No Loafing Sign]] [[Hanging_Objects#Computer Room|poster]] is seen on the wall.

In [[gimmicks]], the [[Tandy]] exploded and Strong Bad flew backwards unusually far, finally breaking through the wall and into [[Strong Sad's room]]. [[Strong Bad's Basement]] is directly below the computer room, as seen in [[HomestarRunner.com PAY PLUS!]] and [[Sbemail 150?!?]].

Another custom feature of this room is the [[The Cheat's Lightswitch| special light switch]] set just the right height for [[The Cheat]]. High on the wall is a window with an old sycamore tree outside. When the branches rub the window just so, they say "[[Douglas]]." In [[pop-up]], we see that the ceiling of the computer room has recessed lighting, a fact which was previously stated in [[different town]].

The stool is notable because while the computer room is carpeted, the stool still squeaks when Strong Bad slides it back to stand up. This noise was referred to as [[The Geddup Noise|the 'get up' noise]] in the email [[the bet]] and was featured in the email [[geddup noise]]. Strangely, the room is only carpeted when the shot is looking at the computer - when we look at the light switches, there is no carpet.

[[Strong Sad]] turned this room into his [[Wikipedia:Tai Chi Chuan|Tai Chi]] space while Strong Bad was in [[Jail]].

Its [[Old-Timey]] counterpart is [[Old-Timey Strong Bad]]'s [[Telegraph Room]].

The desk (or at least the computer) appears to be some way from the wall as shown in most emails by the computer's shadow

== Vector game reference ==

As this is mere speculation, I've chosen not to add it to the page, but the giant vector-graphics Strong Bad head, at least to me, seems like it could be a reference to Sega/Gremlin's vector games Space Fury and Zektor, both of which featured giant heads as villains. --[[User:67.115.105.191|67.115.105.191]] 20:16, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

:There were actually lotsa games like this back in the day. I was playing Vector Breakout and Vector Pong on my brand spankin new Leading Edge 12mHz 80286 IBM-PC compatible machine (with 640k ram and a hard drive with a few megs' storage). Hey, I was 8, but man that was the coolest freakin thing I'd ever seen. Anywho, point is: this isn't a direct reference to any one game, but to the vector genre, which was an early attempt at wireframe 3d gaming. --[[User:Southpaw018|Southpaw018]]|[[User talk:Southpaw018|talk]] 19:20, 28 Nov 2004 (MST)

:It is indeed a reference to vector games in general...the giant, evil, player-taunting head just invokes memories of those two games in particular, though it could in fact be a reference to any of those early-80s games with the main villain taunting you (through that immortal primitive speech synthesis), from Berzerk, to Gorf, to Sinistar. So I just don't really know...that's why I didn't add it to Fun Facts. --[[User:67.115.105.191|67.115.105.191]] 22:27, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

== sinistar ==

I would vote for [http://www.sinistar.com/HEAD.GIF sinistar]. Check out the resemblance (ok - it's kind of slight...) --[[User:Duke33|Duke33]] 10:13, 14 Dec 2004 (MST)

== Removed "fact" ==

I just removed the following:
*Strong Bad's intro is a reference to Pete Rose's book, "My Prison Without Bars", which was released about the same time as this e-mail.
"with no walls" is a [http://www.google.com/search?q=%22with+no+walls%22 common expression].[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] --[[User:Tom|Tom]] 11:56, 5 Feb 2005 (MST)

=== Arguments for a specific fact ===

I just replaced the following, which had recently been removed:
*Strong Bad's intro is a reference to Pete Rose's book, "My Prison Without Bars", which was released about the same time as this e-mail.
Even though "with no walls" may be a common expression, Rose's book had been released only days before this email premiered. It was all over the news, and the reference to a prison missing something was timely and is therefore valid now. -- [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:57, 22 Feb 2005 (MST)

:I'm not going to get into an edit war with you, but I side with Tom on this one. It just seems too much like a coincidence. It's the only reference that could possibly be equated with the book, and Strong Bad makes a very different prison reference less than a minute later. --[[User:Jay|Jay]] 18:13, 22 Feb 2005 (MST)

::You have to bear in mind the timing of it all. The email's debut was January 12, 2004. Only ''four days'' prior to that, ''My Prison Without Bars'' was released. It was ''the'' hot topic of the weekend. I vividly remember the Monday morning I first saw the email and thinking to myself: ''Wow, they put a pop-culture reference in there!'' If I had known of the Wiki's existence at the time, I would have added the fun fact then.

::Time passes. Nearly thirteen months later, some anonymous contributor (I don't know who) adds the fact to the page, but it's been so long that the context and the feeling of a year ago are gone, and so it seems like this so-called fact is a stretch. I can see where you're coming from in this.

::But it's not a stretch. The key phrase here is "prison without." Without bars, without walls -- or even, as Strong Bad says, without toilets -- it doesn't matter what it's without... The fact is that the phrase, ''given the context of the day,'' is too coincidental to be a coincidence. It is an apropos reference, and a valid fun fact.

::Sincerely, and with warm regards, -- [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:27, 25 Feb 2005 (MST)

::P.S. It's true that Strong Bad mentions Alcatraz, but I think that's because TBC already had prison on the brain due to the constant news coverage of Pete Rose's book (and the shocking revelations within it).

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' Email is like a prison. A prison with no walls... and no toilet.

''{reading}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Hey Strong Bad, 
 
I was just wondering what you would 
be like in a video game and what it 
would be like. 
 
From, 
Taylor R. 
Queen Creek, AZ</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads "AZ" as "Alcatraz."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa... Somebody on the inside. ''{shakes head}'' Get out soon, Taylor. ''{typing}'' What would I be like in a video game? Well, that all depends on what system we're talking about. Like, if it was on one of those really old machines—

''{Cut to Atari 2600-style game, with an empty green rectangle imposed on a black screen.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ...the graphics would probably only look ''kinda'' like me.

''{A red square appears representing Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And I'd run all around a futuristic maze—

''{The square starts moving around the screen and some green blocks and blue glowing barriers appear.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —collecting things that look nothing like me!

''{A yellow square the same size as Strong Bad's square appears in the centre of the maze.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Man, that'd be pretty awesome!

''{The red square approaches the yellow square and touches it, thereby "collecting" it. The words "secret collect!" appear on the screen. Cut back to the Compy 386.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Ooh! Ooh! I could also be in one of those 3-D vector games.

''{Cut to screen of said game. A corridor ending with a wall is outlined in red. Some moving arrows appear on the walls on either side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And there'd be this awesome, huge, 3-D version of my head floatin' around.

''{A vectorized version of Strong Bad's head appears on the screen}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Like, it looks so awesome, girls would probably try to make out with the screen

''{Lipstick lips appear on the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' and we'd have to program it to be like:

'''VECTOR STRONG BAD''': BACK OFF BABY

''{As it speaks the words appear on the screen, then fall down and disappear.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And in this one, the player wouldn't control me...

''{Cut to Strong Bad at the Compy, shaking the camera}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 'CUZ YOU CAN'T CONTROL ''ME!!!''

''{Cut back to the vector game.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Instead, you'd be some kinda 3-D shield guy with a shield...

''{A generic-looking guy with a shield appears on the bottom of the screen.}'''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Some kind of spikey-headed 3-D cyber-shield guy... with a cyber-shield.

''{The appropriate changes are made so the shield guy is now spikey-headed and holding a striped "cyber-shield."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And you'd have to block my perplexing geometric attacks, or face certain 3-D doom!

''{Vector Strong Bad spits out a rhombus, which the cyber-shield guy blocks. Vector Strong Bad spits another rhombus, and this one hits the cyber-shield carrier in the face, causing it to explode.}''

'''VECTOR STRONG BAD''': YOUR HEAD A SPLODE

''{Again, the words appear on the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Naturally, there'd be some problems with bad translation.

''{Cut back to Compy 386.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' On the other hand, it might be cool to be in one of those text-based adventures. You know, for those intellectual people with better imaginations.

''{Cut to a black screen with a green arrow at the top.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' It'd be like...

''{reading text}''

<blockquote class="tandy email" style="background-image:none">Ye find yeself in yon dungeon. Ye see a FLASK 
Obvious exits are NORTH, SOUTH, and DENNIS. 
 
What wouldst thou deau?</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad doesn't say the last sentence.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And you'd be all like...

<blockquote class="short tandy email" style="background-image:none">Get ye flask.</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And it'd say,

<blockquote class="short tandy email" style="background-image:none">You can't get ye flask!</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And you'd just have to sit there and imagine ''why on Earth'' you can't get ye flask! Because the game's certainly not going to tell you.

''{At this the screen adds "I'm certainly not gonna tell thou."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And there's no precious graphics to help you out, either.

''{At this the screen adds "Graphics, shmaphics..." and a few seconds later, "...for sooth!" Cut back to the computer.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But oh, man. The best thing ever would be if I was in one of those brand new super-photorealistic games that take like tons of migs and megs of memories just to play it.

''{Cut to a blue screen. A 16-bit version of Strong Bad appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I'd look super-cool, runnin' around on some grass, maybe.

''{The background changes to a 16-bit field against a blue sky.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Or there'd be like, um... a rhino there, too.

''{A rhino falls down from the sky and some music starts playing.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' A ''hungry'' rhino.

''{A food bowl appears in front of the rhino and it starts whining, jumping and turning red. Strong Bad runs around.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And I'd have to, I guess...feed him.

''{A box labelled "FOOD" appears. Strong Bad brings it to the rhino's bowl and it calms down, eating the food.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And, umm...snakes?

''{Snakes pop up, wriggling up and down the screen. The rhino charges. Cut back to Compy 386.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So hopefully one day technology will catch up with my advanced thinking, so all the ladies can start making out with their TV screens.

''{Strong Bad stops typing; he turns around as he continues talking}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until next time, Taylor, this one's for you, and all my peoples got sent up the river.

''{He pours his [[Cold One]] on the floor.}''

''{[[The Paper]] comes down. After about five seconds, the four games appear in their boxes.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*If you wait a few seconds at the end, you can play the games. They are: ''[[StrongBadZone]]'', ''[[RhinoFeeder]]'', ''[[Thy Dungeonman]]'', and ''[[Secret Collect]]''.

== Fun Facts ==
=== Trivia ===
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#bio menace|bio menace]]".

===Explanations===
*Strong Bad's statement about bad translation of ''StrongBadZone'' is a reference to the ubiquitous bad translation of Japanese-made NES-era games, the most infamous of which gave rise to the phrase, "[[Wikipedia:All your base are belong to us|All your base are belong to us]]," which was from the Sega Genesis game ''[[Wikipedia:Zero Wing|Zero Wing]]''.
*When Strong Bad says "migs and megs of memories," he's talking about [[Wikipedia:Megabyte|megabytes]] of computer memory. A megabyte is 1,048,576 bytes.
*When Strong Bad mistakes Arizona for Alcatraz and says "Whoa... Somebody on the inside," he is talking about the famous jail on [[Wikipedia:Alcatraz Island|Alcatraz Island]] (which actually hasn't been in use since 1963).
*Secret Collect is for the Funmachine, while Rhino Feeder is for the Super Funmachine. The names of these systems are most likely references to the [[Wikipedia:Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] and [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super NES]], respectively.
**However, the jump in graphics quality between the two games is more a reference to the graphics advances between the [[Atari 2600]] and its successors, the [[Wikipedia:Atari 5200|Atari 5200]] and [[Wikipedia:Atari 7800|7800]].

===Remarks===
*When Strong Bad says "YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME!" and the computer bounces around, you can still change the contrast.
*The ''StrongBadZone'' game contains the "BACK OFF BABY!" sequence, though it's only accessible with a [http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/flash.html seek bar].
*Although this email was supposed to be about if Strong Bad was in a video game, ''Thy Dungeonman'' has nothing to do with him at all.
*Strong Bad mispronounces the word "ye" in "You can't get ye flask!" When "ye" is used as an article, it is properly pronounced as "the."
*Strong Bad mentions that you can't control him, yet you play as him in Rhino Feeder and in Secret Collect. You also get to play as him in the Egg Throwing Game, Fishing Challenge '91, and Strong Bad's Treat Snatcha.

===Goofs===
*When Strong Bad pours the drink out for Taylor, you can see all of the dust left over from the [[army|last email]], though it was not visible in the rest of the email.

===Real-World References===
*Strong Bad's intro is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Pete Rose|Pete Rose]]'s book, "[http://www.peterose.com My Prison Without Bars]," which was released about the same time as this email.
*The graphics in ''StrongBadZone'' closely resemble [[Wikipedia:Nintendo Virtual Boy|Virtual Boy]] games that used vector graphics, such as [[Wikipedia:Red Alarm|''Red Alarm'']]. The Virtual Boy used only black, and three shades of red.
*When Strong Bad pours the Cold One on the carpet at the end, it is a reference to the modern gangsta practice of pouring out a 40-ounce beer "for my dead homies."

===Fast Forward===
*''StrongBadZone'' is featured in [[Main Page 21]], the vector graphics page, which resembles the arcade game ''BattleZone''.

== DVD Version ==
*You obviously can't play any of the four games. As well, the game boxes don't automatically come up. Instead, you must access them via the hidden Strong Bad Icon on the Compy 386 screen.
**For the DVD, the Easter egg consists of samples of music from each game in turn.
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

=== Commentary Transcript ===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''MATT:''' So this is an email we've been getting since probably the first week that we did Strong Bad Emails.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, and—

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Remember when we—

'''MIKE:''' For whatever reason, we always shied away from it.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' And then, for whatever reason, we just came up with the idea.

'''MATT:''' This was like the Japanese cartoon one, we got that a lot.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Sometimes it just clicks when you read it and some, you just think of a good idea and sometimes you think of bad ideas, like maybe we'll get a really good idea for how to answer the "How do you type with boxing gloves?" email. Dark... dark night.

'''MATT:''' Umm—

'''MIKE:''' So our friend, uhhh, and, uhh—

'''MATT:''' Collaborator.

'''MIKE:''' Compat-compatriot. ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Contemporary.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Jonathan Howe, we, uhh, I don't know—he threw all these together in, like, three or four days, maybe.

'''MATT:''' Less than that, probably, yeah, we told him—

'''MIKE:''' Hey, we had done it early in the—

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' —when we were doing this e-mail.

'''MIKE:''' I mean like midweek, probably. Tuesday or Wednesday, we, uhh—

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Those are really good-looking kissy lips.

'''MIKE:''' Thanks, man.

'''MATT:''' I like that.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Jiggles the camera.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, he gets really close up to it.

'''MIKE:''' Umm, so this is, y'know, like a vector game, like Tempest—

'''MATT:''' Battlezone.

'''MIKE:''' Battlezone... yeah.

'''MATT:''' The original Star Wars game.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Ohh... there you go.

'''MIKE:''' He said, "Your head a splode".

'''MATT:''' I think we were gonna make it ori—if you, when you killed him, he said, "My head splow up". ''{Mike laughs}'' That was the other thing he was going to say. Umm, so yeah, we figured if we were going to do the, uh, this is all sort of—comes from Mike and I if we ever to make a video game—

'''MIKE:''' Don't tell 'em.

'''MATT:''' Never mind.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Nu-huh—

'''MATT:''' ''{slightly more insistently}'' Never mind.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' We're not going to tell you.

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' I'm gonna need you all to sign a non-disclosure agreement before I reveal this. Umm, so this is sort of, uhh... I remember... what was it called? Vampire, I think, was one of the text games I played earlier on, and that's what had parapets in it. Was the first thing that—

'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, I remember parapets, yeah.

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' And I had no idea what para-I remember, like, getting the dictionary out and, because, I thought that would, like, when I'd fin-found out what parapets meant—

'''MIKE:''' That was how you won the game.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, then—

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' That was like— ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' I would like, it was like the key to it, and I'm just like, "What? It's just like a wall, tower in a castle?" Umm... ''{long pause}'' That rhino looks great, too, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' Thanks, Matt.

'''MATT:''' I think that noise, the noise the rhino makes ''{Mike laughs}'' is just that string on a key—on the synthesizer. There's like, it's supposed to sound like strings of a guitar, like when you're sliding your fingers down, yeah, so are the snakes, and they're just really slow ones and really fast ones. Fret—fret noises, that's what I'm—

'''MIKE:''' Fret magic.

'''MATT:''' Fret magic, really, magazine. Bio Menace, that was a Psygnosis game.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, with, uh, what was the other one?

'''MATT:''' ''{menacingly}'' Blood Money.

'''MIKE:''' Blood Money.

===Fun Facts===
*[[Wikipedia:Tempest (game)|Tempest]] and [[Wikipedia:Battlezone|Battlezone]] are arcade games from 1980. They were famous for their colored vector graphics, which were very innovative for their time. "The original Star Wars game" probably refers to [[Wikipedia:Star Wars (arcade game)|Star Wars]], the arcade game from 1983, which also features color vector graphics.

'''Puppet Stuff''' refers to live-action video clips starring various [[Characters|characters]] as puppets. The [[Puppet Jam]]s feature the Homestar puppet rocking out with [[They Might Be Giants]]. The Cheat puppet used in these clips is the '''The Cheat Talking Plush Doll''' for sale in the [[Store]]. As far as we know, the Homestar and Strong Bad puppets are one-of-a-kind items.

When clicked in the Toons Menu, or on the main page (when they were on the "What's New?" button or with the [[Random Toon]] button) they are shown over the top of the page. However when chosen by the "rando" button in the navigation bar, they are shown on a separate page with [[HR:puppet_background.swf|this image]] as a backdrop.
