After complaining for years about not being able to enjoy my records, my husband bought me a Sony Turntable this past Xmas.  One of the nicest things about this new turntable is that it can connect to my computer via a USB cable, from which I can then burn a cd!  It's the coolest.  However, listening to records and hearing them sound the way they were meant to be heard (you know - canned sounds, scratchiness, etc.) totally takes me back to my high school days, laying on the bed, listening to my records, talking on the phone for hours - AWESOME!
