Oh, yes, Almost a goner. We finally no longer have a VCR. Seems as though things get obsolete a lot more quickly than they used to. Dandy choice for the theme, Joy. #10524688

We all probably have many tapes but few of us will still have a VCR that really works. Digital has certainly pushed that technology aside (and I had a Beta machine once upon a time, too). #10524825

And to think VCRs were a revolutionary change back in the early 80s. I remember getting my first VCR, an Hitachi, in 1983 I think...and they weren't cheap! :-) #10526510
