eBay Suggestions are way more accurate than one might expect!

At least it got one of them correct.

Excellent! I like the "Atari 800", though it makes me wonder what the thing in my basement is...

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

Not always, or more accurately, not all clocks. While it may be correct to say this for analog clocks the same can't always be applied to digital clocks as the digital variety has the possibility of showing no time whatsoever or maybe even a completely non-existent time.

eBay has made dumb mistakes like this before. For quite a while, in their automotive section Volkswagen was listed as "Volkswagon". I e-mailed them to point out the mistake and eBay Customer Support insisted that "-on" was the correct spelling. :-x

And then here's a case of "Missed it by that much". This used to be the heading to eBay's vintage computers section, before they replaced it with the "How many times can we get it wrong?" thumbnails:
