    When I went to college, a lab room, down the hall, had a laser disc simulator. You was presented with a scenerio and given a choice. Your choice determined the next section and then another question.
    The lag was bad but it was pretty cool for the time.

    I've been noticing the cassettes making a comeback. Usually only a dozen albums to choose from at larger stores.

    If by super CDs, you mean Super Audio CD (SACD), they were never really popular outside of the audiophile community. Technically, a regular CD should be enough audio quality for everyone if it wasn't for the loudness wars (mostly CDs released mid-90s to now). SACD (and less popular HDCD) were to solve a problem that shouldn't have existed in the first place.

    Yeah Super Audio CDs. Not really in need of them. I might purchase a favorite album or something just to see what it's like.

    But yeah regular CDs are definitely good enough. If you really wanna get nostalgic you get out the vinyl. I've been picking up some nice pieces.

    This RAD red vinyl was a good pick up recently.

    Technically the movie was just Rad, the little racing company that Cru Jones made was called Rad Racing. I bet I watched that movie 50 times growing up. Olympic gymnast Bart Connor was the Team Mongoose rider. Talia Shire (Rocky) and Ray Walston (My Favorite Martian, Fast Times...) were the only big name actors in it, except for a very young and hot Lori Loughlin in one of her first movies.
