MD: MiniDisc in the Comic Section

2000-04-19 Thread James Jarvie


Hi list.

The minidisc is the subject of a cartoon in the comic
section of today's NY Daily News.  The strip is called
"Zits" and it revolves around a teenage boy and his
world. 

In the strip, his father is holding a minidisc and
says "What's this? Some kind of foreign currency?" 
The boy responds "It's one of my minidiscs".

In the second frame: Dad: "Mini-what?"  Son:
"Mini-discs! They hold an hour's worth of music and
can be rerecorded a million times with no loss of
sound quality"

Third frame: Dad: "Wow" as they are both looking at
the disc.

Final Frame: Dad: "Not much room for the album cover
art though".  Son: "Album what?"

Pretty cool.  Too bad the son didn't repsond "over an
hour's worth of music".  Also, I am much closer to the
age of the father in this comic than I am to the son.
