Toshiba DX-900 PCM VCR...

I recently purchased a 1987 Toshiba DX-900 PCM VCR that I mistakenly thought it is smaller-sized to put on my bookcase next to my LCD TV. Surprisingly, it came to me as really ultra-large, and it weighs 23 pounds, the largest and heaviest VCR you could buy in 1987. I had to set it aside, sell it on eBay for profit, and purchased another 80s VCR. There's a PCM audio feature. What is PCM, and is there any use for it?

It is to my knowledge that Toshiba VCRs made in the 80s tend to be the fattiest, largest, and heaviest, because Toshiba tend to put more metal parts inside to increase unnecessary weight than other manufacturers (even today in new products). How can I forget that!!!

(oh, see the attached pics). Look at this gorgeous beast.

What is your opinion with Toshiba VCRs made in that era?
