Metal/Normal

Via The Daily Dish, from the Beeb, Walkman (né Soundabout) vs. iPod.
It took me three days to figure out that there was another side to the tape. That was not the only naive mistake that I made; I mistook the metal/normal switch on the Walkman for a genre-specific equaliser, but later I discovered that it was in fact used to switch between two different types of cassette.
Not stupid, just 13 yrs. & ignorant.
