From the original iPod to the world's first Game Boy, AD rounds up 8 antiquated devices that will bring back a rush of memories

I am, as you may know, a sucker for watches that use older display technologies (see also Nixie tubes). For example, this cool watch by freelance engineer John De Cristofaro uses a vacuum fluorescent display tube, an early form of digital display that cast a bright blue light and was first used in 1980s-era electronics. They will be familiar to folks who owned Subarus with digital displays after about 1983.
On the way to the concourse at SFO airport they have a displayof old TV sets.
