Fighting Words: 12/8/08 Cartoon...



"The Reign of Big Beta"...

I had to do a little cultural research on this one... the Betamax/VHS format war was a bit before my time. For most of my life, "VCR" just meant "VHS."

Of course, if you got the point I was really driving at here, you know the cartoon itself has very little to do with videotapes...

Mark Fiore already did a great 'toon a few weeks ago on the lack of innovation in the auto industry, but I thought I'd go ahead and follow through with this take on the issue that I had been planning.


UPDATE: Hey, how about that... Ford actually did come out with a car they called the "Futura"...
