Screw that. I have a better question. Records. Will they be replaced by eight track tapes?

I'm waiting until I have learned to read binary. I'm not shelling out £20 for a DVD player!

This thread is a good example of all that's wrong with the self-loathing home video watchers of today. Is it really so difficult to type out Vertical Helical Scan and Digital Versatile Disc (or Digital Video Disc)? Movies would be a lot better if so-called "fans" stopped thinking they were above the product, with their cutesy little nicknames for these respectable home video formats. How would you like it if I called you FL, or TK, or DB?

My reel-to-reel video recorder still works. Anything which came later is by definition AN ABOMINATION.

What about the important questions? Should I get an Atari or a Commodore? :o

P.S. Frank, I posted this before I saw your post. My bad.

P.S.S. I get dibs after Taft!

Plastic?? Comic character merchandise??!

I guess someone thinks he's Mr. Fancy with his high tech new fangled items.

Fire! Now that's something you can enjoy.

I wonder if that's the rule at the Mustang Ranch, too?

Oh, Mr. Fancy with your "fire", how about some real good old fashion entertainment!

Sticks, now that's good family fun.

You can't tell the difference between a 1 and 0?

It's more subtle than that. You've got to be faithful to the characters of 1 and 0, not follow the sad fanboy approximations of what they mistakenly perceive 1 and 0 to be.
