They also sell (or will sell) a unit that includes a specially modified VCR.
The only real advangage to this is that their VCR does some of the stuff
automatically, i.e. Rewind to the beginning of the tape, forward for a couple
of seconds..etc...  Just as a side note, you can buy a Video Tape backup card
for the IBM PC (I dont think its videotrax) for about $75.  When will prices
of Mac hardware come down this low!!
