	I'd like some recommendations for VHS machines. I am generally
familiar with such features as fast forward and freeze frame so don't bother
to tell me what the normal features do, and I know that 4 head designs
can handle these features better than 2 head designs. What I don't know is
which machines have the best price performance and which ones have the best
picture. If you favor a particular manufacturer for quality I'd like to
know. I picked VHS over Beta because VHS is reported to have better software
support. If you disagree and find that the picture quality Beta gives
outweighs the lesser popularity I'd like to know. I would spend up to $1k
but prefer to spend much less. I would expect to buy this mail order.
