Gadgetell would like to welcome Julie, our first female blogger, to the gang. We hope you enjoy her insights, opinions, and witty humor.

Remember that hot song you and your best friend recorded karaoke-style back when you were 13? What was it “Dude, Looks Like a Lady?” Well, how cool would it be if you could email it to your friend to hear before their Monday morning meeting? Way cool, right?

Well, Think Geek thinks like you. The Plus Deck 2c is now available at thinkgeek.com. This cassette deck for your computer allows you to take all those old tapes that you thought would go the way of the 8-track tapes that proceeded them, and not only listen to them on your computer, but also convert them to MP3s. Think of all the Def Leopard, N.K.O.T.B. and even Michael Jackson tunes you won’t have to download from iTunes now.

At $139.99 for a Plus Deck 2c, the unit costs about the same as a 140 iTunes downloads. But, then again, if it gives you the chance to embarrass a friend on the worldwide web, it may be worth every penny.

Check out these specs:

  • Hi quality playback as Hi-Fi audio
  • Convert cassette tapes into MP3 files
  • Full-logic controls
  • Tape Speed 4.75cm/sec
  • Wow & Flutter 0.09%(WRMS)
  • Frequency Response 30~18,000Hz
  • Separation 40dB
  • Signal-to-Noise Ratio 55dB
  • Fits in open 5.25″ drive bay
  • Included recording software requires Win95/98/ME/XP
  • Manufacturer Warranty: 1 year
