Thanks for the reminder to mention that tape also!  I can't believe I 
forgot to mention what a big kick I got out of watching some of those as 
well. Sadly they didn't captivate my wife as much, so I haven't seen 
them all yet, but hoping to soon.

I was just thinking how hard it is to believe that video tape editing 
was once done with "edivue" solution.  Fortunately, I never had to use 
it except to setup an Editec once on a VR-1200.  I'm glad my eyesight 
was better back then...
