Surely you mean the Calrissians?

I'm not sure about actual quality, but at least there is an important technical difference between regular and Hifi audio on VHS. One uses a portion of the tape in the same way as audio cassettes, the other encodes audio into the video storage area, where there is more bandwidth.

Incidentally, some early digital audio systems used videotape as their storage medium, again because of the high bandwidth. An encoder/decoder was used along with a regular VCR. DAT uses a similar mechanism with rotating heads to achieve the necessary bandwidth.

...but does it run Gentoo?

That's what she sed.

I have four words for you. Field, Programmable, Gate, and Array.

We are still going to run out of oil. Isn't anyone worried about that?

Fixed that for you.

Apparently, it was named after Verner Suomi, so it's not a direct reference to our country, but there is a Finnish ancestry nevertheless.

I see what you did there.

Of course there is. This is just something from a personal experience, something that has made life interesting again. I also think that FPGA design has improved my understanding of programming, for example because it forces you to think about parallelism much more. The low-level aspects of doing more with less logic are also intriguing.
