UK Teen Tries Vintage Walkman
Ahhhh....kids today. As an experiment, a 13-year-old tries a vintage Walkman for a week. It's amazing to hear his experience, such as having to learn to flip the cassette. He alludes to a "limited amount of music." I have seen similar experiences with my daughter. At four-years-old, she has a hard time understanding that, if I leave my iPod at home, I simply don't have every song I own with me.
My favorite quote:
Personally, I'm relieved I live in the digital age, with bigger choice, more functions and smaller devices. I'm relieved that the majority of technological advancement happened before I was born, as I can't imagine having to use such basic equipment every day.
Get off of my lawn!

I recall some movie star being on the Tonight Show, taking about how he'd just bought a vintage car and his kids though the manual window cranks were the most awesome thing ever.
