Retro-Tech: According to the adverts – the Panasonic RS-296US could play 2.5 days of music non-stop…that’s roughly the same play time to the ‘1000 songs in your pocket’ that the first 5GB Apple iPod boasted in 2001.

NOTE 2.5 days of play time equates to 60 hours which would require 20x 180-min cassettes. Whilst these tapes did exist at one point, 180-minute lengths were also very fragile and best avoided. A more realistic play time is to load this machine up with 20x 90-minute cassettes which gives you 30 hours, and that’s why I refer to the ‘day and a half’ of continuous music at the end of video.

The Antikythera Mechanism I mention at the beginning* is a 2000 year old computer that has been in a number of documentaries – someone has uploaded a BBC video about it here: [Since Deleted]

You may have spotted two special cassettes in the video – a Back to the Future Replica “Edward Van Halen” tape and a Guardians of the Galaxy “Awesome Mix Tape Vol. 1” – both were provided by my good friend Hugo from Walkman Archive – you can find more info on his tapes here:

Millennials clearly let their tastes dictate their stockpicks.

Apex Clearing recently unveiled its fourth-quarter Millennial 100 report, which analyzed more than 734,000 portfolios owned by U.S.-based investors with an average age of just over 31 years. Many of the names are probably exactly what you’d expect, along with perhaps a few surprises

“It’s been exciting to see how millennial’s investing habits have shifted over the past year,” Bill Capuzzi, CEO of Apex, said in a release accompanying the results. “From responding to key market moves, showing a keen interest in recent IPOs, and investing based on their values, millennials have proved to be a unique audience differing from their generational counterparts.” The millennial generation is usually classified as those born between 1981 and 1996.

Here’s the top 10, broken down by percentage of overall holdings:
