That's an old Betamax I think.

Ehi, i had this one for real!
"She" wanted 3KW to view something, and the image was awful, but it was funny... rogar-BigGrin(DBG)

That's an old Betamax I think.

Not if "Gilbert Grape" is in it.

I was going to close this thread, because it started out as a retread of other threads, but you guys made it worth the while . . .

Glad we could amuse you David. The tape didn't make sense, but I had never seen a VHS machine like that.

I have one of these bad boys sat in my closet:

(too lazy to go take a pic of mine)

Your Commadore 64's have nothing on my BBC B+ 32bit system.

Still fully operational, has an external 5½" drive .. the other option is to connect it to a casette tape recorder to save & load programs!

I also have a custom built buffer box for controlling external devices that I built in middle school many years ago.


I still use what I learned with that system regularly, with code and hardware derived from it in active service today around the world.


Also: It boots faster than any other computer I've ever seen. You click the switch, and it's on! :grin:

i don't know if we still have it, but as a kid i used to play with a professional betacam.. made stop-motion movies with it, and lots of other random crap.

i can honestly say betamax was the worst format ever, logistically speaking.

Oofah.
