    Mr X. The D-100 came out in the UK in 1986. This is my D-100. Unfortunately mine is not working but I can at least look at it occasionally.

    Very nice! You must have been one of the "financially overburdened." I just picked up a different PCDP, I'll have to post it, the nicer PCDP are even rarer to find than nice Walkmans.

    The Sony Walkman: A Revolution In Sound, Discover Magazine 2019. I was 1/2 expecting them to credit this thread/forum at the end... I wonder how many of these article writers might be looking at info around here?

    The same all-plastic 1990s family. Cannot read the model. Looks like the FX28. $70 and no Dolby NR.
