  Re: IBM chooses Mega-Blocks over Lego
 
(...) lol, whatever. It is its fitting the bricks are dirty - no matter how they got dirty, or what got them dirty *its fitting they are dirty*. Stop trolling!! Geesh, do you never get tired of this? People like you really make enjoying Lugnet hard (...) (23 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

  Re: IBM chooses Mega-Blocks over Lego
 
(...) Yeah, or maybe they just don't care about brand purity! And I, for one, welcome the attitude of our new corporate overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted builder, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their overground (...) (23 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Hi Dave - no, no reference at all except to IBM. (...) I don't have ready access to a scanner, but I have now taken a few photos - some I left at the highest res my camera can do.

  Re: IBM chooses Mega-Blocks over Lego
 
(...) Is there any reference in the packaging or literature to (URL) Interactive>? A few years ago I won a promotional set on Ebay for Dell computers that was likewise crafted of MEGA BLOKS. Also, is there any way you'd be willing (or able) to scan (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  IBM chooses Mega-Blocks over Lego
