Where can I get a good priced VCR from?

My A-track player broke last week. I need some new technology: should I get a high-priced VCR or an Atari 64?

• I'm really awesome and technologically savvy. I have a black and white television, a brand new Speak-N-Spell, and that new hit game all the kids are talking about: Crack the Whip. I'm not really sure I want to shell out the cash for a super-sweet VCR. I mean, I know it's cutting edge and all, but wouldn't my friends want to hang out with me regardless of my NEW technology? There's a new show coming out called NIGHT RIDER. I'm pretty excited to see it. I heard it's about some car and some dude who's huge in EUROPE. Crap! My thirty pound cellular telephone just broke. Does anyone have any duct-tape?

• Answer:

  Wow, get your facts straight. If you really had these things, you'd think you'd know how to type them. It's an 8-track, as in a tape with 8 audio tracks on it (usually 4 stereo tracks), not an A-track. There was never an Atari 64. There was the Atari Jaguar which was the first 64 bit gaming console, a Nintendo 64 which was the successor to the Super Nintendo (or the Super Famicom), and the Commodore 64 which is an 8-bit computer with 64k of RAM. The show you're speaking of is KNIGHT Rider as David Hasselhoff's name in the show was Michael Knight. There was never a cellular phone that weighed 30 pounds. There were IMTS car phones which did.
