  Dear All,
 
  following our discussions last summer, I was disappointed to find that
now I
  have a portable minidisc, persons of the gender(s) to which I am

  obstinately refuse to throw themselves at me. Perhaps I should hold the
MD
  in full view and kinda sashay down the street to make my new coolness
more
  evident.

Don't forget to:

- Turn up the volume all the way to share with everyone.

- Talk to others in a loud voice, even though you can't hear them.

- Sing bits of the songs you are listening to now  then.

- A few dance steps are in order.

Isn't this the script for the new sony commercial?

Couldn't resist...

MD: MD Kewlness

2000-02-10 Thread Rodney Peterson


Man, everywhere I go, people point and shout and carry on. I just can
not dodge the attention. I know the reason, too. You'd think people had
never seen a MiniDisc recorder before. It's all because I carry a
MiniDisc recorder..and a shotgun.

If you are gonna sing some of it, you should play someting they might
recognize.  Some how, I don't think you singing along with an opera in
Italian or German would quite get it if you trying  to impress someone that
doesn't speak those languages.

(Those Elvis Presley songs might date you too.)

Hi.  You might be surprised how many people outside of Japan have no idea
what a mini disc is.  I meet many people who, when I mention MD, claim they
know what I am talking about.  But it soon becomes obvious they haven't a
clue.

Mini discs are never going to main stream outside of Japan.  Don't ask my
why.  I could only offer guesses.  I got into MD with Sony's MZ-1
(important to note that although many people put in "R" in there, the model
number does not have an "R" in it.  Just MZ-1).

That portable did have a few nice features that were deleted from newer
units.  Like a digital optical output.

Regards,
Larry
