    I replaced the old radio in the car with a fancy DVD player so I can watch movies while driving.

    Is the 30 year old VCR a top loading one?

    Sort of, you pop open the door at the front, load the tape in and then close it.

    Much like putting a DV tape into a video camera.

    Some of them might, if they had old computers. Not sure if the service is still provided in that way though.

    I remember once connecting to Esat digital's service and getting a 56k connection. For some reason a more technological minded person will tell ye, even if you had a 56k connection, it was very unlikely that you would connect at that speed. Often it was 48k.

    Pointless story is pointless but I like to tells it.
    Lucky you. :pac: The highest I ever got was 54.6k in Ballybunion.

    That I still use:

    An Olympus OM-2n SLR from the 80's.
    A Fed-3 Rangefinder from 1968 or so.
    Main TV in the house is a 32" CRT.
    Original Gameboy (actually gets more play than the DS)
