	A recent issue of _Consumer Reports_ reviewed the VHS T-120 Video
cassettes made by several manufacturers.  Tapes were scored in about 6
different categories, such as picture quality and sound quality.  I don't
have a complete list, but I do remember a few:

	#1: Scotch (With a "score" of 99)
	#2: Scotch "Gold" (95)

	....

	Sony, Radio Shack, and Maxell were all in the bottom half of
the chart.  I found this a real surprise, as Scotch tapes are the least
expensive in this area.
