When we were looking for a multistandard converter VCR I specifically asked if the Aiwa played SECAM. The J & R dealer in NY told me that it did play it--but in B&W. That is why we ended up having to pay $1300 for the SAMSUNG (which plays SECAM, PAL, etc) SV 4000 W at: http://samsungelectronics.com/vcr/index02.html That is an incredibly EXCELLENT price, if the Aiwa plays/converts from SECAM, PAL, etc. Carmen At 10:26 AM 3/23/1999 EST, you wrote: >--- Forwarded Message from Derek Roff <[log in to unmask]> --- > >>Date: Sun, 21 Mar 1999 10:32:36 -0700 >>From: Derek Roff <[log in to unmask]> >>To: LLTI-Editor <[log in to unmask]> >>Subject: Re: #4921.1 Standards Converter >>In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> >>Originator-Info: login-id=derek; server=mail.unm.edu > >I wandered Market Street in San Francisco two weeks ago, and found nothing >to compete with the Aiwa HV-MX100.
