That would be cool, Dave. But I can't stay up late on New Year's Eve because I work New Year's Day.

That sounds awesome, Dave!

Man, I wish I could just win the lottery or get out of here. I'd spend every holiday with friends and family.

You too, Dave.

The last time I enjoyed Christmas movies was Christmas 1990. My last Christmas in the home I grew up in.

Are they any less hassle than a laptop, Dave?

Thanks.

If I had the money and I lived in a house, I'd probably have a desktop and a laptop, and probably a tablet for travel. But that would be it. I don't like a house that's too teched out. I'd keep everything else simple except for the TV. I'd even have a record player for vinyl records along with a CD player.

I suppose they are, Dave. Anything that's simpler, I guess.

I'm hearing there's a big movement to bring back analogue because people are fed up with the internet and digital. First it's vinyl records and now it's other stuff. It's making a comeback.

I don't know what analogue is... and people are fed up with Streaming b/c they would rather not pay for it and some people have slow speeds [mbps] and cookies and advertisements are irritating on some streaming services. People don't know how to clean their computers after streaming of any type either.... it's actually very simple

Sorry, I meant analog. Typo. You know, using CD's and vinyl records instead of digital downloading, or paper books instead of e-books. More and more people seem to want to return to analog lately. Companies are noticing an increase in sales of vinyl records over the last few years. Analog is anything that is physical and that you can touch, as opposed to all digital stuff.

Well, I can understand people's issues with streaming. If you have a smart TV that can access streaming services that's one thing. I think people prefer that to streaming on a laptop or a desktop. But I prefer my cable TV On Demand.

Happy New Year, Dave!

CD's are good. I still have mine, and they're also collecting dust. But vinyl records are making a big comeback. And since they still sell vinyl, I'm sure they still sell CDs. I'm not interested in cassette tape coming back, though. Those could be a pain.

Oh, and old video game consoles like Atari are coming back as well, did you notice?
