But now that version makes drawing horizontal/vertical lines a nightmare so it ends up being a wash doesn’t it?

My cousin could draw circles on the old Etch A Sketch. I watched him do it in about 1970.

Perhaps a more significant innovation than the first iPhone, and certainly more significant than iPhone without a headphone jack.

It says it still has the H and V knobs, so it looks like your awesome square art will be just fine.

I was always able to draw curves on one. It ain’t that hard. I could even write my first name in cursive.

If “revolution” is too dangerous a word for Sanders to use anymore, it’s still safe enough for a children’s toy. So that’s alright.

I’m fine with “revolution”, but I object to “alright”.

Of course the new challenge will be to draw perfect spirals by adjusting the H or V knob exactly in time with the rotation of the screen.

I’m not buying this Etch A Sketch unless it has a headphone jack! It doesn’t need to do anything, I just want it there.

This is not the way God designed Etch A Sketches! All those curves. So suggestive. Practically sinful.

" … of course, it took him two weeks to draw each curve, but it wasn’t technically difficult."
a bit stupid that the picture on the BB post is the wrong model featuring a squarish screen.
