OK, so I started this all off when I took the topic about Johan's model
(Linn) and morphed it into something completely different.  Now,
however, it really has got my interest up a whole lot more !

Due mostly to that auction website, I have managed to collect a large
amount of old and obsolete Audio-Video gear.  Unfortunately, my other
half isn't as enthusiastic as I am and she calls it "Jon's Museum of
Sh*te".  Still, I find it fascinating.  So far, the list of stuff in
"the museum" is ...

- Sony HiFi BetaMax recorder.

- 2 x LaserDisc players

- CED VideoDisc Player (these things were quite popular in the USA I
think, but are VERY rare here in the UK.  And fantastic technology !)

- Sony Reel-to-Reel 3-Head Tape Recorder (in need of a little TLC, belts
perished, etc.)

- Philips DCC730 - yes, I too have A DCC recorder !

- And last, but not least, a Philips DCC170.  For Paul, and anyone else
interested, that is a PORTABLE DCC Recorder !  They also made a Portable
DCC Player-only as well (can't remember the model numder).  Both were
about the size of a standard cassette walkman, just a little thicker.


On the current wish-list for "the museum" is an Elcaset, and one that
DEFINITELY won't get in the door past the Chief Domestic Officer - a
1-inch Reel-To-Reel Video Recorder !

Is this normal behaviour for someone interested in OMs ?  Is it a
coincidence ?!  "Stop Me, before I spend again !"
