Yes we've got a bloody video!!!
So, today Princess, T and I found an Amstrad Video Recorder at the Elwood School Markets. I didn't even know they made such things, although my brother Rick bought one of their weirdo CP/Mish running machines back in the 80's (before seeing the light and getting an Amiga), and I was somewhat OCD about the Amstrad PC1512 when it first came out. Anyway, the VCR cost us a cool 10 bucks. On the way home, I grabbed a SCART adapter (another 10 bucks) so's we could get some composite/audio signals out the back, and it's now all hooked up and works a treat. It's all black - looks kinda snazzy sitting under the XBOX.
Welcome back to the 80's - can't remember the last time I watched something on video; however, I'm keenly aware of the amount of stuff the local video store has on VHS that they haven't got round to getting on DVD. For that matter, I'm a bit sick of hiring DVD's that end up having massive scratch issues. Roll on video on demand via the internet.
