Believe it or not our only TV set is from 1985 (Blaupunkt Scout T8 [1]) and we use it daily :-) We didn't have a TV by choice for the last several years and just used laptop when we wanted to watch a movie, but as I got more and more interested in stuff from the 80s, I started looking for an old TV as a fun project to try connect HDMI to it, play NES and so on. Long story short (because I could talk a lot about it) the TV somehow stayed with us for 2 years now and we don't plan to get rid of it anytime soon. It has a beautiful form factor, the image and sound quality is surprisingly good and we simply don't feel the need to change it for a modern one.
