I agree, reel-to-reel rocks and so do blinky lights. I really miss my
old Unisys 5000/90 with three 800 pound cabinets. I'd squeal with
delight just to turn that huge thing on, dimming the lights for blocks
in the process. It took 60 amp 220V just to fire up one harddrive at a
time. (even more blinky lights!) Of course, I was single at the time,
too. Hey! I'm single now!! I can get another one!! <cackles> Ric
