I think I have a prototype?

[Mycrafter5]

I had a relative who worked at RCA as a design technician. Long story short, he died 3 years ago and I am inheriting various things, I found this DVD recorder and I think it's a prototype. I want your guy's opinion on this please.

Seems like it. Pretty cool!

Seems pretty cool and might be legit.

Ohhh damn.... like owning one of those PS3's with 600 USB ports...

Seems legit. My friend worked for motorola for a while and always got to play around with old prototype phones (long after the launch date). Once a company has a production line running for a product the prototype is pretty useless because if they want to improve on the design they would start with the product from the production line. The prototype probably retains a lot of the functionality of the real deal, but some features may be different.

Might be either a prerelease review unit (don't ask) or a kiosk/store unit.

My guess would be a pre production test unit.
