What Old, Non-Gaming Hardware Do You Use Regularly?

One thing that really sticks out in my mind is my ti89 calculator. I use that thing all the time still and I got it I think 9 years ago now. Its funny but there has been quite literally NO innovation in graphing calculators since.

Very true. Not that I use mine anymore, but very true anyway.

The only thing I use on a daily basis is my sister in laws old dell laptop - though it is running gibbon. I wouldnt consider my pcs as retro tech or my tvs. But I do use an old powerbook 510c, with its blazing 25mhz cpu, when I go down to the local college for meetings. It is always a great feeling to sit there next to people who paid thousands for their laptops, while my free one I got way back in the 90s does the typing thing just as well.

i got two old amplifiers that i use for sound..Got a old jvc amplifier in the living room for the tv and consoles and im pretty sure its the oldest thing in the house. It even has needles to measure the sound coming from it

And for the pc i have a slightly newer sherwood amplifier that does have a remote a big remote but it works.

In my office, for our listening pleasure, we use a Technics component CD player that I bought new in 1987 for the bargain price of $200. I have the matching receiver/amp there but we stopped using that a while back.
