- [0]Is it safe to say that Super-VHS is dead? I'm not sure how long it's been
-
- I hope not, but it doesn't seem to be moving very fast. An interesting
- point is that this fall, Radio Shack started carrying a S-VHS VCR.
-
- You still can't buy a S-video cable there, but having a SVHS VCR means
- one of two things: either they think it is safe enough a bet to
- invest in stocking it in 7000+ stores, or they got them cheap because
- the market died and the manufacturers we giving them away. It is in
- the catalog.
-
- I also note that they now are selling SVHS "Supertape". No, I haven't
- tried it. My heads are too valuable for that type of experimentation. :-(
