2600 Magazine_ The Hacker Quarterly - Digital Edition - Summer 2011 - 2600 Magazine [75]
United States. Talk about no respect. Here we have a Home Depot in Reston, Virginia that apparently thinks an empty shelf serves more of a purpose than an actual functioning payphone. We fear they may be right. Photo by Melissa Jonas

Respect

Canada. Sure, maybe nobody’s using the damn thing. But at least it looks attractive and artistic. So the next time you see a lonely payphone, think about making it look pretty. This one was found in Vancouver, British Columbia. Photo by Lani Johnson
Taiwan. Someone always has to go a bit overboard, don’t they? This phone, seen at TPE Airport’s international terminal in Taipei, is definitely too pretty for anyone to take seriously. The Hello Kitty craze has really gotten out of hand. Photo by Henrik

The Back Cover Photos

This auto collision shop, discovered by Kc7eph , in Seattle, is not our latest business venture. But they did manage to frame the 2600 in an almost perfect position for a future cover.
Yes, it’s another 2600 building, this one found by Jules in Lighthouse Point, Florida. We don’t know about having the solution to the national debt problem, but we do know this building is for sale and would make a dandy hacker space.
