TJBChris' Gift Shoppe - VIS And A Bonus Item!
The TJB Shopping Network presents...A Christmas-themed special for the perfect holiday gift: The Memorex VIS MD-2500 Video Information System player. Let's look at all of the capabilities of Tandy Corp.'s CD-ROM-based multimedia device for your TV. I'll talk about what it does, demonstrate its multimedia capabilities, and show you why you need one in your house. Naturally, this isn't really for sale; this video is a parody.
But wait, there's more! I also present a second item at the end, so stick around and check out our (pretend) bonus offer!
There was a little static on the mic, mostly toward the beginning. Not my day job, folks. As usual, this is done without edits or cuts. What you see is how it went, second-by-second.
