[net.micro.pc] VCR = backup device

kds@intelca.UUCP (Ken Shoemaker) (02/22/84)

In the latest PC World, Corvus is advertising a device that for $500
lets you turn your VCR (video cassette recorder) into a backup
device, that holds 73 Mbytes.  Does anyone out there have any
experiences with this little gadget, I mean, besides possible
access latency problems, it seems to be a really great idea (if you
already have a VCR...)
