Even by the late 1980s, most households did not have camcorders. Most households did not have a home computer. Even fewer had both. Thanks to my dad giving me some old gear as he upgraded, my household did.

Behold, a VHS video intro I did in 1987 on my Radio Shack Color Computer 2. The CoCo only had RF (TV) output and my VHS recorder was an editing deck and did NOT have a TV tuner. Since the CoCo did not have audio/video out, and the recorder did not have RF inputs, I just pointed the camera at my color television and recorded the titles that way.

Oh yeah. State of the art.
