Beta Lore featured in the New York Times.

Though all but forgotten in today's consumer electronics, Sony's Betamax format video tape recorders hold a special place in the hearts of the faithful. This page serves as a home for stories of man and machine, of the trials and tribulations of Beta patrons.
