Subj: TAPES

Rick; in msg# 6971, you ask the question "Who the heck uses their cassette port
these days, anyway?"...Well this confuses me?...How else would you connect your
tape recorder to the computer?(grin)
  
What I really wanted to say, hoping that I not the only one who still has to
use tapes?? Is that in the dark corners of some Radio Shack Stores there are
C-20 computer cassettes, reg. $2.79 for $0.49. Every few months or so I see
these pop up; they still sell the C-10 and there C-20 deluxe (fancy steel
wheels) for full price on the shelves.
  
P.S. If your looking for giggles and kicks, go into a R/S store and find a
younger looking sales clerk, then ask him for blank cassettes for you Model
100. You'll get that same old, "deer in the headlights" stare every time.
