VCRs, which were
introduced in the 1970s for family entertainment, is finally at the verge of retirement.
The powerful entertainment machine is retiring based on the known fact that its
usefulness has been taken over by the DVD technology. This is made known the by
Nikkei Newspaper, which announced that the last video cassette recorder (VCR) in Japan will be produced by the end
of the month. Other companies known for producing VCR have since closed down owing
to low patronage.
This goes to show technology evolves and how our lives have been enhanced
by it. For me, fond memories of this machine, dates back to my primary school
days, when people with this equipment, are revered as elites. I used to walk
quite some distance to watch movies uncle’s house, as he was the only known
person having such item in those days. His own looks like the one in this
second picture.
How time flies; The generations to come would need to visit a museum
before they understand what a VCR looks like.
