What, are you kidding me? Today in the office I was trying to explain the sound of the Speak and Spell toy from Texas Instruments. It was a little laptop type game from the early eighties that looks ridiculous now but was the stuff back when it came out. Just like the Atari, this is one of those games that takes you right back to your childhood if you are currently in your 30′s like me.
You need to check out this online Speak and Spell. It works just like you remember. It even has the On and Off song/sound effect that I was trying to explain to my co-worker.

My life just reversed to the grand ol’ age of 5! I LOVE these things!!! I played with them for hours. I’m sure my parents were sick of the that monotone voice, but it was a great babysitting tool.
The website also ensures that my productivity level drops to 10% today.
