What's the oldest piece of tech you still use?

Cohacq

At work I daily use an old tektronix oscilloscope that does not have a usb port, it instead has a floppy drive xD

 

At home.......probably my PS1 controller

I use a Geforce 6200 whenever I need a graphics card really quick or am having problems, and one of my computers has a Athlon XP 3000+.

I have a 6200 as well, does yours use AGP or PCI?

 

I also have an Athlon 64 3500+ and 3800+.

 

I have a Samsung CRT sitting in my basement that I still watch movies on occasionally(don't ask why, I really don't know).

 

As well as a dual Athlon MP 2000+ system that I loaded Windows XP on that I'll fire up occasionally.

My 6200 is PCI, but I also have a Geforce 2 MX that's AGP but I don't use it.

I've actually been using XP for a few weeks on my pentium D Computer while I waited for new parts to arrive because my kind of semi decent laptop that I had been using died, and I figured it's about time I actually build a PC.

Specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen R7 3700X @4.4Ghz, GPU: Gigabyte RX 5700 XT, RAM: 32 GB (2x 8GB Trident Z Royal + 2x 8GB TForce Vulkan Z) @3000Mhz, Motherboard: ASRock B550m Steel Legend, Storage: 1x WD Black 1Tb NVMe (boot) + 1x Samsung 860 QVO 1Tb SSD (storage), Case: Thermaltake Core V21, Cooler: Noctua NH-D15

Not bad!

 

I have a GeForce4 MX420 that I use in my Athlon MP rig.

A computer with a E4500 processor and 2 GB of memory, using it as a overkill ebook reader by my bed, before i go to sleep.

 

I used the CD-RW drive on that system yesterday to burn a few CD-R discs for my sister (mp3 music for her car's stereo) .. that brought back memories.

I think I just might have everyone here beat. I have an original NES, but here's the catch: it's hooked up to a CRT television that has literally been passed down in my family for a couple generations. My great grandfather bought it in 1959 (making it 59 years old!), it's an old Sylvania Dualette in blue and white. Because when I go retro, I go full-on retro. And as for whether it qualifies as something I "still use," I play the NES on it about two or three times a month so you can be the judge of that. Sorry I don't have a photo on hand to prove it, I guess you'll just have to take the word of some anonymous person on the internet.
