    I don’t understand why this attitude persists now that VCRs are gone. If you’ve never set up the time and record time on a 6digit LCD, then you don’t know the struggle.

      At least on VCRs you could enter the time with the digit buttons on the remote. Whereas on digital alarm clock/wristwatch, if you hold the time up button a split second too long, you roll past the actual time and have to try again.

        Remote? I’m talking about flipping that little door to expose the same control scheme that cheap monitors use.
