         Re: LEGO Company Welcomes Adult LEGO Enthusiasts —Kevin Loch
     No, probably a Betacam SP format video tape. That's the most common (analog) professional video format. It uses Betamax form-factor tapes but the tape material, speed and format is completely different. KL (...) (23 years ago, 6-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

     (...) Uh. I was mostly joking. I haven't seen a BETAMAX tape since.... well, since the first place my family used to rent videos from, which was back in... crap. I dunno. '85? '86? I figured it was a marketing thing, though, since the main purpose (...) (23 years ago, 6-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

     In additon to your comments the page syas something about Issue #1. Perhaps Lego took up the idea a fan- web zine?

       I hope they don't support lcad, I hope they get rid of all those Lego computer games and concentraty on making cheaper lego blocks and better models or perhaps they won't be around next generation. Koen (23 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.cad)

      (...) Actually, that's a debatable conclusion. Not that I want this to go to .debate. TLC definitely has the *resources* to put into such a project. So it's not impossible that they could come up with a better LEGO CAD. But I'm not sure that it's (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.cad)
