No knock to old tech from me. I have a 1978 Panasonic Omnivision in my bar I use just for kicks. First VHS machine for the masses. It plays tapes so clear you would think they are DVD's. Cost someone a fortune when it was new. New car money. I just was poking fun at the posters cranky attitude toward the new stuff. One never knows if it a good tech or not for many years down the road where we can see what it did for us.
Mine has deluxe simulated woodgrain on the front.
