Killy the Fox's definitions
PAL (Phase Alternation Line) Is the main European TV signal output.
The difference between PAL and NTSC (the American type in full: National Television Standards Committee) is that the NTSC syatem isn't as good in coloring as the PAL system but has a higher nuber of half-frame per second (PAL has 50, NTSC 60) wich makes tv images look more fluid.
These days tv's (especially in Europe) support both signals including a mix of both wich has the refresh from NTSC and coloring of PAL.
This system is also used as a country lock, meaning that sertain DVD's or tapes will only play if the system supports the signal.

Get the pal mug.Game company responsible for classical game systems like the Atari 2600. Unfortunately dying over time from to hard competition from Sega and Nintendo.
Until this day games from the old Atari's get re-made into a new coat our redone.
Worst was wen Infogrames bought the name and with that thinking that people recognizing the name will associate them with long time quality. Unfortunately for them most don't fall for such a stupid idea...
