Makes the lacklustre display of the pixel 2xl look like a masterpiece in comparison

I miss these! I never got one but wanted one so bad. I remember watching SpongeBob on the playground with my friend on hers. Simpler times

I use to own a videoNow color fx they were good I’m thinking about getting one again the last one I had was 6 or 7 years before it broke down and I found about 6 sponge bob videos for it but nothing to watch them on so I’m going to try to get a new one soon from goodwill or somewhere they’ll have them. Although it won’t be my everyday form of video watching i look forward to the nostalgia of using one again.

i remember this i had the blue color FX from toys r us (ahh memories) and i thought it was the shit like i was hot i remember getting the media wizard and a bunch of cheap cds cutting them to size and getting (cough) backups of shows movies music vids whatever i could and burning them then it got replaced by my 32g ipod 5.5 gen video then that got replaced by an iphone 4 and finally a note 9 where i am now this was cool at the time and i had fun great video

[@griffensander]

I was never able to get my hands on a copy of the media wizard, but there used to be a home-brew program that did basically the same thing. I had this little holder made that let me attach a CD to the end of a drill so I could hold sandpaper on it until it was sanded to the right size... Those were the days :)

@@griffensander it was just the software disc itself really and my stepdad got it along with so the drama for me from his work you know that guy that has all the hottest movies and stuff on disc if you know what I mean but since my brother was in HS and big into music making 2ith friends we always had a crap ton of cd+r discs

[@myboijonsery]

i still like video now they are cool

[@Crazyreviewer123]

Same they hold a special place to me I'm getting a new one soon from goodwill or maybe the videonow XP but both were very good and I would sometimes get a group together and we'd watch spongebob or fairy odd parents together after school. Best memory is one time the low battery warning showed up and one of my friends provided new batteries so we could watch it again it broke down a couple years after. But I'm excited to get a new one soon

I wasn't that expensive!
