Now the question is: Do you all still use these old stuff? ;) I still use my old analog 3.5mm audio speakers, VGA, DVI, Belkin OmniCube KVM from Y2K (how in the world does it still work today?), PS/2 clicky keyboard and mouses, Casio Data Bank 150 calculator watch, etc. At least, those are still useful to me. :) -- "And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." --Romans 5:5.
