Discman - so much better than the Walkman. =)
I loved my discman, but remember trying to pretend like it wasn't skipping with every bodily movement? That's the advantage the walkman had that we didn't want to admit at the time
The later models had quite a large buffer and you'd have to shake it pretty long for it to skip.
By the time I could get one that wasn't a problem.
Mine has a 10 second buffer so it never skipped, except on the RW-CD that has been re written to 10x
