Why Do 58% of Americans Still Own VCR's?

If you're a techie or gadget geek, you know that Las Vegas is the scene this week of the Consumer Electronics Show, where devices we never dreamed would be possible are enjoying their debut. A new Gallup poll says Americans' "tech tastes" are changing with the times. Sales of desktops and laptops are falling as tablets and WiFi soar.
