But, the advertised seven-year-life of the bulbs is complete bull.
Yep. I think it is only if you turn it on one day per week. The normal on-off-on-off of daily use burns these suckers right out. Maybe the LED bulbs will be better if they ever get the cost down. The LEDs seem to be working OK in traffic lights.

Are those color keys according to Rimsky-Korsakov or Scriabin's standards? :oops:

How about a 20 year old impact printer? Or even a 10 year old inkjet printer which doesn't have drivers to modern computers. Can't even give them away.

Just hang on that old stuff for long enough. I have a Friden rotary calculator with the ten key multiplier pad. And it works. Don't you know there are some folks who would love to get their hands on that.

We have a hard time disposing of building materials left from demolition or leftover new. Nobody wants to buy them. The city won't pick them up. We have to load them on our trailer and pay the dump to take them.
We pronounce it Guf Coast

Commodore 64,
Granted, it's been a long time since I've look at one, but that looks more like a 128. Somewhere, in boxes, I have the 64, Vic 20, and Plus 4. Never did spring for the 128, but came very close.

Aren't those collectors items now? Kinda like old comic books or baseball cards?

I can't get rid of a 7 year old RCA DirecTV reciever--just 'cause it's old, doesn't have DVR.
