I just noticed that Red, Green, and Blue all have the Qbasic color codes 4, 2, and 1, respectively.

R = 4 = 100
G = 2 = 10
B = 1 = 1

Coincidence? I think not. Conspiracy? I think so...!

the 16 bit color system works as such

bit 1: blue
bit 2: green
bit 3: red
bit 4: intensity

this way you get 8 combinations of red blue and green, and a brighter version of them, totalling 16 colors.

Yeah but I thought it was odd how the Qbasic color system worked out as such, seeing as Qbasic is as old as that senator who never dies...

It's your video bios's.

You have a 16 year old senator?
