What's the most outdated piece of technology you still use today?

I have a nine year old HP laptop computer that runs as well today as it did when I first purchased it. I don't need a powerful computer because I use it mostly to surf the net, listen to music, watch YouTube videos and copy video and audio media to my phone.

I also bought a Logitech wireless mouse eight years ago and it works great too. I've only had to replace the battery in the mouse once a couple years ago.

What about you? Whats the oldest piece of technology you still use today?

I watch broadcast tv. I was recently told "You 'have to have cable'. I still lease my landline.

So many.
Outdated? To me nothing is outdated.

I know what you mean. Going to thrift shops and seeing them for sale under ten dollars makes them irresistible.

Stereo equipment, including turn tables and cassette decks, from the 70’s - 90’s. Lots of VCR’s. My oldest firearms start in the 20’s. I have a ski boat from 76. I guess I just really love old things. An odd one I have is a glass minnow trap that I’ve used in a pond for years. I have no idea how old that thing is.
