Specifically, Big Five Software's arcade games.  Bill and Jeff did incredible work.  Those games sure as hell didn't _feel_ like the resolution was a paltry 128x48 block grid.

Carjacking or impoundment? We now have two vocabularies for wrongs, depending on whether private persons or government agents commit them. This is the difference between mass murder and national defense. Between extortion and taxation. Between counterfeiting and inflation. And so on. Other examples will occur to the astute reader.
