Yeah, I waited 24 years for my MAC. My ex-hubby was so damned high maintenance. (quarter-million over 13 years) that was quite a learning experience.

Sheesh, I could have bought multiples of everything had I not spent everything on the poor needy baby that was disguised as a grown man. well I sure learned a thing or two. 8-P

whiny white boys, please leave the room the grown ups are talking

Speaking of "grown ups"

20 year old TV? Still working or do you have a working one sitting on top of that (you might be a redneck if...)?

lmao...

The only electronic device that I have that old is my father's TI scientific calculator!

I'm poor - got other things to spend money on. Don't even have cable/Don't miss having it.

My TV is a Mitsubishi manufactured in 1988. (back when they made a damn good TV)

It was a Floor Model. No box....

Supported S-vhs w/ 500 lines of resolution. Pretty decent at the time. I got it cheap, too...

Will probably have to replace it with the switch to digital - Though my dvd recorder has a digital tuner....
