Although, there are threads dating back to March 1999 on this board anyways. What were you doing THEN, shik-not-Shik?
Well, lets just say that back in the 20th century, I was still having immense difficulty in multiplication math and writing in cursive.
Come to think of it, I still possess that problem...
Hey, me too. I still remember watching eps of Voyager when they were new though. I used to have to video tape them because they were on past my bedtime. Gosh, do they even make VCR's anymore?

Yes, dumbass. There's still quite a bit out there on VHS that's not available in any sort of digital format, not to mention the fact that many people still own a large collection of VHS tapes. Besides, it's the only way I know of to record TV on basic cable, since I don't care to pay for a bunch of digital channels I won't watch.

Well, I only ask because I don't see them in stores, other than combined with a DVD player, and the only VCR I have operated on a regular basis is older than me.

Working at a place that sells electronics (among other things), VCRs are harder 'n hell to find these days from suppliers. Its only once in a while that we can even get anything, and they're very very basic. So basic, in fact, that they don't have a TV tuner in them anymore!
A combination DVD/VCR recorder isn't all that expensive anymore. Not sure if you can record right on to the DVD or not, never investigated that...

I know my brother still used his VCR more than his DVD player back in the day (So many anime tapes on tape...) but isn't a tape only gonna last a few year at best?

Your bedtime was before 8pm or so?

Sorry for the necro-posting here, but this topic was about a bunch of my Starship Recognition Chart ships. I've been going over some of this stuff recently for inclusion at the new Federation Reference Series website, and I'm wondering... has anyone ever come up with launch/commissioning dates for any of these ships?
Timo... are you there?

So... nobody got a damn thing I need, huh? Not even a Timo's Guide to Every Fan Ship Ever Conceived quote?
Damn necro post for nuthin'. Now I'm going to have to actually make up dates for all those ships...
