I used a scientific instrument (Latchet in-line spectrophotometer for you chemistry folks out there) from the 1980's that runs on a computer from 1993, sporting Windows 3.1. To get my data I have to export it on to a 3.5" floppy, move that data on a second computer from the 3.5" floppy to USB, then transfer that USB to my regular work computer.
At home, the oldest piece of electronics I own is likely my Gamecube, or my Garmin etrex Vista Hcx GPS unit (it's now my cycling computer)
Had one of those in my dorm room back in the day. Still surprised that I was able to have kids after using that radiator.Use a Quasar microwave from 1983 nearly every day. Great microwave, though definitely a bit underpowered compared to modern microwaves.

Now that's what I'm talking about! Tubes rock music like nothing else.
A dutch oven from 1912 and a cast iron skillet from 1923
I regularly use a 1963 Fisher 500c Tube Amp with my 2 channel source music. Sound quality beats anything that is created today. I paid to have it completely rebuilt.

Careful - that sort of thing can lead to your boys becoming girls...
Do any calculators still use that ? Once you got used to it you could fly.
I barely remember being able to pick up the phone and call friends with just the last 4 digits of their phone number.
