Current Beta Machines: Sanyo VCR 4590A

In January 1986, my dad brought home a Sanyo Beta VCR so we could watch rented movies and tape some shows. I was 9 back then, and had no idea what Beta and VHS were, but in the last few years, I've realized that Beta is of course, the superior format. It is now March of 1997, and the good old Beta VCR is still running. It isn't used much now since it's mono and has an analog tuner, but I am going to start looking for a used Beta Hi-Fi to do some time shifting. My mother has tried to throw it out a few times, but I think she's finally realized that you can't just go out and buy a new one all that easily. Long live Beta! :)
