I never understood the logic of installing something that is already obsolete....

Do you guy Tube TV's because they are real cheap?

actually some of the old stuff lasted a lot longer than the throw aay stuff of today, back then you could repair it. today it is just throw it away & buy another.plus stuff lasted a lot longer.some of this stuff may be obsolete but will outlast the new stuff, because quality was built back then , not quanity. just my thoughts!:biggrin2::biggrin2::biggrin2:
