This is a question Crap Gadgets

We wanted a monkey butler and bought one off eBay. Imagine our surprise when we found it was just an ordinary monkey with rabies. Worse: It had no butler training at all. Tell us about your duff technology purchases.

Thanks to Moonbadger for the suggestion

They missed a trick in not calling it the Compact Digital Cassette.

The Philips Family
"Cassette" is properly called "ACC" - Audio Compact Cassette.
"Video 2000" - the third 'also-ran' video format from the early 1980s, was actually called "VCC" - Video Compact Cassette.
So it's hardly surprising that they went for DCC.

Yeah, thanks for ruining an already not very good joke there, Captain Autism.
