I do remember vinyl and VCR … we never had either of those at home. Never was into music as a kid, until I got my own cd-player. Then I got one of the first portable harddisk mp3 players (Creative Nomad) and converted all cd’s to .ogg. I’ve been in the habit of converting cd’s to either mp3 or .ogg vorbis format ever since.
My dad did have one of those giant reel to reel tape recorders (is that a name?). Think of them as cassette players with giant 10 cm wheels and no cassettes.
He used them to record the audio of tv-shows with a microphone, so we had to be real quiet.
First homecomputer (a Philips VG8020) was connected to our black&white tv … even though colour tv’s did exist at that time. I think kids these days don’t appreciate how fast technology evolved during our time.
Too late to hobby, need sleep. I do hope I get them ork boys done this week.
