The April 1984 issue of the British magazine "What Micro?" (70p from all good newsagents) contained a spoof review of a revolutionary new PC, the "Victori XZ64/4A".

A paragraph in praise of its display reads:

"Now lets move on to the display - and what a display it is. No less than 30 colours are available from Basic: white, off-white, cream, dark cream, light tan, light brown, bamboo, medium tan, medium brown, wood brown, sepia, burnt umber, oxtail, mustard (both French and English), khaki, off-brown, chocolate, dark tan, dark brown, dark burnt umber, burnt chocolate, drinking chocolate, ovaltine, light black, medium black, dark black, brown with a hint of green, brown with a hint of red, and brown with a hint of reddy-green. On some televisions these colours tend to look a little muddy, but with a little hunting around compatible sets can be found. For the purpose of this review I am using a VictoriVision Super Compatible available at most good electrical shops in Taiwan."

That's more shades of brown than a typical Unreal Engine 3 game! :)
