| :::::::::Strictly speaking, every single known [[Compy, Inc.]] computer to date that had a brand number, with the exception of the never-seen "Compydore 64", had a brand number ending with a "6" (the Tandy 400 wasn't necessarily made by Compy). Strong Bad even tried calling a steak sandwich the "Steaky Steaky 6". "NT" was probably chosen for the Corpy due to connections with the networking-friendly [[Wikipedia:Windows NT|Windows NT]]. XT6 would then carry on the running "6" theme as well as 20X6. The "T" is left being the coincidence from this viewpoint, though perhaps a notable one. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC) | | :::::::::Strictly speaking, every single known [[Compy, Inc.]] computer to date that had a brand number, with the exception of the never-seen "Compydore 64", had a brand number ending with a "6" (the Tandy 400 wasn't necessarily made by Compy).

- | :::::::::::Where's the 6 in "Roomy-Vac", "Block", or "Compé"? Also, we don't have proof that the block, terminal d6, corpy, or Zappy are made by compy inc. and the steaky steaky is more likely from blubb-o inc. than from compy inc. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:02, 23 September 2009 (UTC) | + | :::::::::::Where's the 6 in "Roomy-Vac", "Block", or "Compé"? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:02, 23 September 2009 (UTC) |

- | ::::::::::::PS. While we don't know that the Corpy or Zappy are Compy computers, I, personally, suspect it. Not strongly enough to put on a main page, but this is a talk page. :) I neither know nor care about what fictional company made the Block or Terminal. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

- | Bringing this up again, I think the link to 20X6 is much stronger than to the Corpy. My reasons are basically the same as Jay's at 00:40 and 00:53 on 23 September 2009, except I don't think the coincidence is that notable. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:03, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

- | :I agree that it is likely a reference to 20X6. Considering Microsoft came out with Windows 95 and 98, it's possible that's what TBC was going for. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 02:09, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

- | Well it is officially past June 5 2012, so can/should we now mention with certainty that this didn't end up happening? I know it was unlikely to happen in the first place but like the 2 years email with silly predictions after 2 years later the predictions page mentioned that none of the stuff came true. --[[User:Happypasta|Happypasta]] 21:13, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

- | : Technically, no, we can't, because Strong Bad hasn't appeared in anything recently. (Carl in the Aquabats doesn't count.) But it's probably not going to happen anyway. ;) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 21:39, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
