There are numerous choices to make everyday, especially when it comes to purchasing new electronics.  Once you think you have something figured out, there are new developments and twists.  This lesson was re-learned by me when I set out to buy a video camera. The major types are DVD, mini DVD, and hard drive, and all are available in high definition, if desired.  All have numerous pros and cons favoring one over the other.  I have narrowed out the desire to buy one that requires a DVD.  I remember the old video cassette camcorders, which always seemed to run out of...
