Default Re: Threads getting more modern?

As someone who still makes his living repairing vintage tech, (just about ) I have noticed that there is a section of young people who are developing an interest in vintage tech.

Perhaps on top of the vinyl revival, this is being driving by the desire to 'own' rather than rent, and the fun factor of a piece of equipment instead of an app. Mainly its old radios and hi-fi. My 15 year old grandson says there are a number of people his age in school who now own walkmans, and prefer them to spotify!

Long may it continue I say. Certainly I think today's young generation miss out on the fun we had back then with 'new gadgets and tech'.
