'''Block''' is the computer [[Strong Bad]] uses to answer email from his Eastern European viewers, "across the pond." It has been seen only in the email [[other days]]. It has a screen and font similar to that of the [[Compy 386]] and scrolling horizontal lines like the [[Tandy 400]]. The screen [[font]] is thick and utilitarian; however, the question mark is notably thin. This machine lacks contrast buttons or any other interactive feature common to Strong Bad's other personal computing systems.
