Talk about old school
When I was little, we used to have a Capacitance Electronic Disc player or “Video Disk”. This was before VHS came out, naturally. I used to remember watching The Last Unicorn on it.
When I was married, for some reason my ex-husband thought it would be a good idea to buy one of these players and some disks at a yard/garage sale.
Thus I am now stuck with the clunker and a big pile of disks. Fortunately I stumbled onto that site above which shows there’s at least an oldschool fanbase for the damned things. Kinda like old 1970’s hackers and computer programmers you’d imagine from War Games.
Needless to say I think I’m ready to get rid of it. It works, and it’s a charming idea to keep and mess with an ancient piece of technology. But there’s no real desire for me to watch it regularly.
