yeah, I like this one:

"The public sees a computer digital imaging system"

Does this mean it's a free study ? ( I wish )

This is where I get messed up...

"records: 80's, yes or no?
i'm talking vinyl."

For how many decades has vinyl been around...and what makes vinyl an 80's thing specifically? Could I take a picture of a tree that was around in the 80's?

"Tapes were the thing in the 80's.....Oh yeah. "

Tapes were around big-time in the 60's and 70's...I remember buying tons of them or does this challenge not require us to kinda box out other decades with entries???

Please explain?

heh - what the hell is a VCR? actually i remember the first two VHS tapes i watched... 'The Black Stallion' and 'Benji" ;} my dad was renting machcines to decide whether to go with a Beta, VHS, or Video Disc system. we weren't allowed to rewind tapes using the VCR. we taped everything we could think to tape off the TV that received only CBS and sometimes ABC via a roof top antenna...

I remember my first VCR. I won it in a sales contest at work (1981 or 82). At the time it was valued near $1000 (alledgedly). I had to go out and buy a TV to use the darn thing. ;^)

BTW...roof top antenna is still used in our neck of the woods (no cable out here).

It weighed 50 pounds too. Yup, when did those years become "OLD DAYS"?

Didn't they come out with the Disk Camera around then?
