The item to guess was a Picture that was altered., for this Fark competition. There were almost 100 correct entries! I was impressed by many of the emails that described each component on the console. Another neat fact is that a few Hacked Gadgets readers actually operated those very consoles!

The winner is Alexander K.

Thanks to all who entered.

Uh…
Heh, I actually lol’d at this.
But I don’t want to really say too much, as I know exactly what this is.
I don’t want to give anything away.

I am with jack… I am confused… If the caption tells us what it is, then what is it that we are supposed to guess?

Why don’t old men look like that these days? Really, WTH? He doesn’t seem to have the extra skin they get now. Or are there cloths line clips on the back of his head?

Hey Jack and Marks256,

All may not be as they seem. That is as far as I can go. 🙂
Good luck with your guess.

since this contest is already closed, I’d like to point out that this is a photoshop. The reflections are all wrong. Definitely photoshopped. I can tell from having seen quite a few shops in my day.
