录像机VIDEOCASSETTE(中文4500字,英文2700字)
在卡匣式录像机出来之前，我们用的是电影放映机与屏幕。或许你还记得，小学五年级时老师把屏幕拉下来的情景，或是老爸把屏幕挂在墙上，准备让来访的朋友观看你们家夏日海滩假期的迷人影像。但是常常影片才刚开始播放，放映机的灯泡却烧坏了。
尽管如此，早期的东西有个优点：屏幕的重量很轻，像纸一样薄，而且可以卷成筒状方便携带，这比笨重的电视或计算机屏幕强多了。映像屏幕引发的不仅是怀旧之情而已，我们不禁要想，昨日的便利有没有可能与今日的技术结合起来呢？

VIDEOCASSETTE
Before the videocassette recorder there was the movie projector and screen. Perhaps you remember your fifth-grade teacher pulling down a screen—or Dad hanging a sheet on the wall, ready to show visiting friends the enthralling account of your summer vacation at the shore. Just as the film got started, the projector bulb often blew out.
Those days did have one advantage, though: the screen was light, paper-thin and could be rolled into a portable tube. Compare that with bulky television and computer screens, and the projector screen invokes more than just nostalgia. Could yesterday's convenience be married to today's technology?
