Where did this Turbob term come from and what is it supposed to mean? Just curious.

I'm honestly flabbergasted at the number of new members that post "What does turbob mean" or "What does obey mean" or any of the other myriad questions that new folks ask without doing seemingly ANY research into this community.
I'm surprised it's not self evident. First time I saw Turbob: "WTF?" Second time: "oh...that's stupid."

Personally I think the term's a bit gay, so I never use it.

Also I think that the turbo looks like ass, and is an insult to the superior design aesthetics of the PC Engine.

Esteban, that's legendary.  You should ask him if he's related to TurboT http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbot_War

Oooh!  There's someone called "the Turbotonator" and "Captain Canada"!



Quote
Brian Tobin; the Canadian politician who was largely responsible for managing the conflict. This earned him the nicknames 'Captain Canada' and 'The Turbotonator'
