What a time to be alive...
"The first generation of U-matic VCRs were large devices, approximately 30 in (76 cm) wide, 24 in (61 cm) deep, and 12 in (30 cm) high, requiring special shelving, and had mechanical controls limited to Record, Play, Rewind, Fast-Forward, Stop and Pause (with muted video on early models)" -Wiki
The first VHS we had was something like this. Had a 20' wired remote control with like three buttons on it.

I always wanted Beta to win that war, but cheap won out like it often does.

hahahha! well here the temps are not to crazy specially in my town in the mornings right now in summer you see temps in the 67 to 70 degrees and the high temps are around the 87 to 90 degrees the best part is that you can still feel the breeze is not the same in San Juan trust me loool!
