RCA Sarnoff Lab company mag from 1981

Like the Zenith thread, but I started a new thread here. I don't have a scanner modern enough to have a windows 7 driver, so I crudely took pictures. Off angle, as the paper is glossy. This the Nov/Dec 1981 issue.

They were pushing videodisc hard then...

I wonder what RCA would be like today if they hadn't of sold out to GE, only to be butchered.

Probably killed and eaten by the Asian TV industry like Zenith and most others.

I wonder if there are any old RCA units left at GE since they sold NBC to Comcast?

GE sold off everything RCA - to Thomson, Harris, and others. TCL still holds the RCA name - all that is left of RCA. They license it out of a Paris, France legal firm.
