Not quite. Commercial TV has been around since the 1940s (in the U.S., anyhow) and color broadcasts were commonly available by 1960. My family got it's first color TV in order to watch the 1968 Olympics.

Yes, I agree with you there, but I wouldn't be sure if you said that many common homes had colour TVs.

Whats even more amusing is that he was at "initially denied the Microsoft kingpin's application on the premise that they required proof he would not reside in Nigeria indefinitely, causing a strain on social services and a general nuisance for immigration.". I guess those Nigerian 419 scams really do pay off for them."
