The Cheat--while not a 'dedicated nerd' like Strong Sad-- also has enough practical computer knowledge to assist him in his tasks with his Apple iMac 400MHz, ''[[Tangerine Dreams]]''.

Greeting from his Character Video

{Page Title: Incredible Cheating Action!}

THE CHEAT: {subtitled} Yeah, I'm the Cheat. What are you gonna do about it? ...That's what I thought. Now let me finish. I help Strong Bad cheat at stuff. Hence, the name. Duh. I also DJ down at Bubs' on Friday nights. I'll put you on the list if you give me twenty bucks. I make cartoon animations with my computer. Don't ask me to make a for your band. You guys suck! My main man Strong Mad protects me from larger predators, like being sat on by Strong Sad or Pom Pom. I've got a gold tooth. Wanna see it? Tough!

...Okay, fine. {smiles at the camera} Now turn that camera off before I throw this bust of Van Buren at it.
