Lucky me - my blinds don't open all the way & not much sunlight gets into my room. :)

That's nice to know. Maybe that's why console manuracturer's are avoiding gray now? Not because it looks tacky. :P

I think it's the tackiness more than anything. :P

I bought an SNES at a garage sale recently with this problem. It's twice as yellow as the one in the image.

My Famicom is also a slight yellow-ish tint, but to be honest, I'm still using and playing it. Who cares about what condition it's in?
