Dammit!  Another of my choices bites the dust... I wonder if I'll still be able to get spares for my 8000i?

I may have to mount it in my Sinclair C5 in between the 8-track cartridge player and the Betamax VCR (which is 
connected to a Squariel)...  :-)  (non-Brits may not get all of these)

Anyone wanting to avoid future obsolete technology/manufacturers might want to check my inventory and treat it 
as a blacklist!
