Poverty American Style
Rich on 2004/09/07:
„35 million people were classified as poor in the last census. But 70% of those were able to meet ALL essential expenses including medical care, probably owned a car, had 2 or more televisions, a VCR or DVD player and lived in decent housing. And most of that 70% actually owned their homes.“

Time Shifting Your Life
ronn on 2004/03/31:
„And now (to finally get to the point of this post!), your Mac makes it easy to time shift all sorts of content, including radio, streaming audio and a surprise you won't believe!I received a DVD player this past Christmas after my VCR died after nearly a dozen years. So I doubt I'll be getting a DVR any time soon. Still, a couple of the other items mentioned are worth a look:“

Sunday Update
LaLa on 2004/03/14:
„Sweet! Also, he somehow rigged it so the TV gets cable on the regular TV channels, but pulls the VCR and DVD player from the family room through the cable. It's so awesome! It looks so finished and neat, and I don't have to worry about the kids sticking stuff inside the components.“

You can't watch DVDs you bought
Brian on 2004/02/22:
„Sure, 321's copies are digital, but the court doesn't claim to be making a digital/non-digital distinction dispositive. Oh, by the way, that device that connects between your DVD player and TV and makes non-digiital copies onto VHS is called a "VCR." That's right. On one reading of this opinion, your VCR is now illegal.“

v-day recap
deb on 2004/02/15:
„I got a new DVD Player for Valentine's day. It's one of the combo units that has a VCR and DVD Player both. Mark had looked into TIVO but upon research decided we didn't want big brother in our home.“

Saturday, but not in the park because of the below-freezing temps.
girl on 2004/01/10:
„Nothing of excitement to write about today, as I spent most of it cleaning or having a mini-marathon of Buffy (the third season, courtesy of the DVD set from Santa last month). Also, I was re-arranging, in a rather embarassing attempt to situate the VCR and the DVD player such that I can reach them without getting up from the couch. This is a bad thing, especially considering that the freezing freezing FREEZING cold weather--weather where the condensation on the windows is FROZEN--has prevented much in the way of exercise.“

Eat the Rich
Jeff on 2004/01/08:
„Overall, the typical American defined as poor by the government has a car, air conditioning, a refrigerator, a stove, a clothes washer and dryer, and a microwave. He has two color televisions, cable or satellite TV reception, a VCR or DVD player, and a stereo. He is able to obtain medical care. His home is in good repair and is not overcrowded.“

Dad vs My Home Entertainment Center

„Anyway, the setup. He decided to do this while I was watching Law&Order: SVU, which was not going to be interrupted for a check to make sure the vcr and dvd player were fully functional.“

Stand Alone
Bill on 2003/12/10:
„DVD players are quickly catching up with VCRs in popularity, but they still have a long way to go. Ninety-eight percent of American households have at least one TV, and 92% have a VCR, but only 41% have a standalone DVD player. In homes with Internet access, however, DVD players have achieved 61% penetration.“

Avery at four weeks
Dixie on 2003/10/19:
„While they were here, John and I went to Circuit City, where I bought a surround sound system for the new TV. He spent the rest of the afternoon and part of the evening getting it installed and set up, as well as using better cable and a better wiring scheme for the cable box, vcr, and dvd player so that the picture is MUCH better. We watched Matrix Reloaded on DVD last night and it was like being in a high-tech theatre. It was awesome!“

Being CF's first day back
Simon on 2003/10/07:
„And there was a 5 minute wait for the noodles. So I bought a VCR and DVD player. Also had my eye on a plasma TV, but the new LCD TVs look like they'll be the go in a year or two so I might have to curb my toy envy for a little while. HK is a boy's dream when it comes to electronic toys.“

„Hmm...I got called off work from the beach today because it was really windy so instead I went to WalMart and got some containers. I came home and packed up just about everything except my clothes, tv, dvd player, vcr, stuff like that. Everything else is ready to go. It's so soon.“

Still packing things
Drumwaster on 2003/06/19:
„The wife wants to just get rid of much of our furniture and slowly replace it (I think she had this in mind all along...), but I'm more interested in getting some new techno-goodies, such as a new TV, a DVD player (maybe even a DVD recorder, so I can get rid of all of those bulky VCR tapes), a new computer, and maybe even my own server. It'll give you some ideas on how we compromise on things when I say we're probably going to get a new couch and love seat first... *Sigh*“

COBA smart classroom
chamilto on 2003/02/27:
„The system included two drop-down screens, two ceiling-mounted data projectors (it wasn't an especially large room, but the seating was flat, not tiered, so two screens were necessary), 6-8 (kickin') speakers in the ceiling, a DVD player, VCR, and networked Gateway computer. The last three items, as well as the console controls, are in a locked cabinet at the front of the classroom. The entire system is controlled via remote, which seemed to work from anywhere in the room.“
