Panasonic PV-V4611 4-Head Hi-Fi Stereo VCR
works great!
I've had NO problems with this vcr.  I don't know what everyone else is talking about with problems with their vhs's, but playback has been fine.  Also, I do a lot of video editing, and I also hook the VCR up to my computer.  I've had no problems while using it in that manner.  No kids touch it, so maybe it's a 'adult' vcr (shrug).<BR>And I love the light on the remote.<br />My only complaint would be the rear a/v hookups.  The inputs/outputs don't stick out.  Instead, it has a little compartment, where all the inputs are deeper than the rest of the plastic... The inputs are too close together, too deep, and the sides of the plastic hinder you pluging in the rca cables or screwing in the co-ax.  But if you set it and forget it (:P) then it should only be a bother once.
