Good morning Steve and the SoCal crew! It is seriously muggy here today. All the windows in the house were covered in condensation on the outside this morning!

Beta's were smaller, 'n the Bigger of the Two VHS, outsold Beta, Try findin' a Beta tape or player, it's impossible...
'Cause Panasonic was greedy 'n they were the only one's who made 'em...

Anthony,

Better check who made BetaMax's. Twarnt Panasonic.

And, yea, they're still around and used by those that need that format.

Now get real, kid. You were born in the mid-nineties, and you don't remember much from anything earlier....
