The good people over at PC World have compiled a list of treatment aid, sick 123950,00.asp” target=”_blank”>”The 50 Greatest Gadgets of the Past 50 Years”. Now whether you are a fan of techie stuff or are gadget-illiterate, this list is quite the looker. I think for anyone and everyone alive today can find something that reminds them of the past. There are of course more modern gadgets like the Motorrola Razr and Apple iPod but the more interesting ones are the ancient ones that you may remember seeing, using or breaking during your childhood or youth.
Here are a few of those here. See if you recognise any in the rubble.

I used to like only one game in Atari, hide and seek. and only sometimes i would play that game of supposedly airplanes, that used to stop for fuel every now and then , can’t remember its name nor details but my brothers were fond of it.
SC, we used to have a commodore64…it took up half the room 😀
looooooool!!! we used to have all of them except the portable phone and the game boy. i thought the commodore 64 with the t.v black and white monitor was very high class technology…..remember duck hunt on the commodore? P.S: i still have the same walkman
I Still have a fully functional IBM compatilbe pc from 1989. its a Tandy TX. 8Mhz processor, 640k Ram, No HD, CGI grpahics.
