About Gary Bettan, the web author

I hope you have found my website to be interesting. It was not easy putting these pages together. All of the copy was written by me, although some of it has appeared in our ads and/or catalogs before. I used HTML Writer to encode/create the pages. The logo's and buttons were made using Paint Shop Pro. I have a Zeos Pentara Pentium 90 computer at home, and that's where all this work was done. Often until the wee hours of the morning. Special thanks to my beautiful wife Lisa, who although she was pregnant, put up with my internet madness.

Mother, child & father are doing great!!

I have been interested in consumer electronics and video my entire life. I took television production classes in high school, and my first job was with Philips CE in Knoxville TN. There I worked as a financial analyst for Magnavox TV Product planning. For the past 6 years I have been at Broadfield Distributing Inc., the parent company of The Electronic Mailbox. The Electronic Mailbox is our mail order retail division. Broadfield Distributing wholesales our products to resellers and retailers throughout the US. If you are a dealer, call (516) 676-2378 to set up an account.

As you can now tell, I wear many hats. I am the computer guy, who everyone runs to when things don't work. In addition I am one of the tech advice specialists and the DTV Guru. I am also a contributing writer to Camcorder Magazine. Now that this site is up and running, I can go back to my monthly article schedule. You can see my latest article, a hands-on review of the Fast FPS60 and Quadrant Q-Motion 150 Hi resolution Non Linear Editing systems.

In the future I will be adding avi, mpeg anf jpeg files for your downloading pleasure. This will not happen until I get onto a bigger server. I will only get onto a bigger server if these pages prove to be profitable.

So please order soon and often,
and make sure you mention the website when you do!

Those of you on the rec.video use groups and Compuserve forums are probably familiar with my postings. I try to be informative and honest, while promoting our company and products. It is not an easy line to walk, and I do occassionally cross it. Thank you all for your tolerance and support.

On the personal side, here's what I am into:
