What Happens When You Put 230 Walkmans Together?


Recommended Posts

Here's what...

So by 2010, Sony had sold 200,000,000 Walkmans. That's impressive until you realize that Apple has sold around 400,000,000 iPods.

Cool. But shouldn't it be "Walkmen"? ;)

 

I never made a mixtape for mine. I always listened to albums I taped (usually my own) though sometimes I had to juggle tracks to make things fit on the cassettes I used.

 

Even back then, I was always pushing the tech. My favorite Walkman was the one that collapsed to the size of the cassette box and could be put in the rack with the cassettes.

This is the era of gender neutrality. It's "Walkpersons."

 

And what about those who have mobility issues and can't actually walk?

 

It's a PC minefield!

When I saw the title of the thread, I was hoping somebody had hacked a bunch of walkmans/walkmen to make a Walkman mellotron....that would be cool!
