When I started school in '77 they had Panasonic U-matics; they worked pretty well I thought. The next time I see the principle I should ask if one is still sitting around. Some of the teachers used them to record soap operas for later viewing. I really should contact my middle school history teacher, who was in charge of the A/V department. He had a Panasonic reel-to-reel video player which he fired up one day to show a short film. He also had a classy looking 19" Chromacolor while the rest of the TV's were eighties era solid state.

The G-2000 is significant but has a limited appeal. How many people really appreciate such a thing? For me, space is a premium and there are other sets I would rather have taking up the real estate.

I just had to have a G-2000, then when I got one and realized how big, heavy and ugly (to me) it was, I was counting the days until it left my house! Again, I am not knocking it, I just didn't care for the style, and i'm not a real fan of solid state stuff anyway.

Shall we say it's a "WHITE ELEPHANT"?
