1 - Easily been 5 years. People still ask for my fax number in professional settings sometimes and I'm like, "Really? Who still faxes?"
2 - I never had one. When they were hip (in the 90's), my dad always associated them with drug dealing so he would have beaten me if I had one.
3 - Actually, I kept all my cassettes and I break them out every so often. I have a bunch of tapes of old regional bands that weren't really big enough to have major record deals. So the only way I can still hear them is on my old cassettes.
4 - We have one in my office. I never use it but a couple of my staff do to make labels.
5 - Man,...I guess it's been every bit of 15 years.
6 - This one happens frequently in my house. My 8 year old son is big into Monopoly right now.
7 - I have the first Poloroid model ever (circa 1967 I think). It's awesome. It's the one where you snap the shot and then pull the picture out of the side. Black and white of course. I don't use it often but I guess I break it out once or twice a year.
8 - Again, this happens frequently in my house. We must have roughly 100 VHS tapes of kids movies. I'm not going to go out and buy the DVDs of all those movies. But my kids love them. So they watch them.
