So the railing the laser slides back and forth on is metal? Interesting... It must be a little later model then. What is the model number on the bottom? 1001?
Really it was surprisingly wasteful to put on both a custom output jack and standard A/V jacks. I'm surprised they did that at all, considering that particular detail has no effect on signal quality. I suppose it was a matter of making it compatible with any standard a/v cables one had lying around. The custom jack does save the effort of needing to stick an s-video output on there as well.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
