> The Game Cartridge

yeah, i was slightly surprised that jerry lawson (inventor of the game cartridge) wasn't mentioned.

Why does Jerry get the credit for cartridges? The Magnavox Odessey had cartridges about four years before the Model F.

I could see him getting credit for ROM cartridges - as I understand it the Odessey cartridges changed game play but didn't contain code.
