The vast majority of consumer have gleefully accepted the digital video wave with DVDs, DVD players and digital video files on computers, iPods and PSP devices, to name a few. So it may come as a shock that analog video equipment is owned and utilized in some households.

I finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows tonight. I took my time reading it knowing I would be sad when I finally finished. I am not sad for the way the book ended (I won’t tell what happens…), but because I don’t have a new book in the series to look forward to now.
