Awesome! I still own three walkman's of varying quality--mainly because I need somewhere to play my Industrial Waist tape! lol Ah, those were the days. I can remember carrying a giant boom box around the promenade prior to the walkman. And now I have an Ipod. The Ipod is so much more user friendly!

"It took me three days to figure out that there was another side to the
tape. That was not the only naive mistake that I made; I mistook the
metal/normal switch on the Walkman for a genre-specific equaliser, but later
I discovered that it was in fact used to switch between two different types
of cassette."
Loves it. Coonsie: you want to loan the kid your film camera?
