- Well, if you can disconnect the cable, yes. But that is normal. At AX'92 you
- weren't supposed to hook up VCRs, but I know several rooms that did, sometimes
- many. (Or am I misremembering, were they allowed? Con rules blend...) I've
- been to other cons which will HELP you hook up... The big deal is that most
- fans won't do it and it is a way to get your works shown. A collector will
- most likely want to have an original.. Same reason I buy some CDs and some
- tapes... The CDs cost more so I only buy music I REALLY like on CD, the rest
- on tape... If you really like something you want the best quality. I just
- got an LD player....

- It is expected that someone will copy stuff..
