Name some electronics you have been using for 10 years+?

my giant ass rear projection TV. Despite it attempts to die it keeps on living. Forcing me to watch glorious standard def tv.

My sister is using a 25 year old Onkyo receiver.
And the the Jensen speakers she got at the same time.
 
my snes is still hooked up in parent's home. I had a lot of snes games over the years, but sf: 2 and nba jam are always ready to go.
 
My TV (32", 2000-pound SD tube) and 'home theater' components are all well over 10 years old. The receiver's more than 15 years old.
 
none. I replaced nearly everything when I graduated college in 2003.

the oldest electronics I have that I'm still using would probably be my iPod 2g (2002... it's my bathroom/shower music source), one of my monitors (19", bought in 2003... it sucks compared to any modern screen, but it gets the job done as my second monitor), and my case (2005 - Antec P180, actually looking to replace it now)
 
Hmmm... well I've had the same TI-86 since 1997. I think I've had some pairs of headphones for ten years. I have a bunch of stuff in storage. Some things in there might qualify as well but I can't recall. Of course I've had some game systems for quite a while.
 
My wifes alarm clock

Nintendo gamecube

Super nintendo - probably close to 20 years old.

Sony TV for the bedroom

That is about it for electronics. The stuff usually gets replaced within 5 - 7 years.
 
My web server is 11 years old.
I have a TV that is from 1996 that I use every day.
My wife has an old toshiba PDA that is close to 10 years old.
Stereo receiver and cerwin vegas from 92.
 
I wish I kept my large Advent speakers I bought in 1972, but I gave them to my brother a long time ago.

Our main TV is probably older than ten years. Not a single flat screen TV in the house. Most of the home theater setup is probably pushing ten years, if not older. People get too obsessed with buying the latest rather than funtionality and quality.
 
10 Years - Off the top of my head: My bass (Tobias), my bass amplifier (SWR Redhead), the preamp and power amplifiers on my stereo (Adcom)... maybe a couple others. Of these, the bass and bass amp have both been updated - The bass by my own hand. The Redhead at the factory. Kinda sad I hardly play any more.
 
NES
SNES
3D0
i have working CRTs from 10 years ago that are still used
5 disc CD changer for stereo
DVD player/s
Speakers
the TV i have in my bedroom is about that old
 
NES (can't remember when I got it, '88 maybe?)
HP-48 (1996 I think)
Gamecube

Can't think of anything else I have that's in semi-regular use.
 
Kenwood Mini-Component.
Home Theatre Sound system.
Athlon 700 Slot A computer
Model M Keyboards from 80s
Alarm Clocks
Dreamcast
LaserJet 4P
X-Box is almost 10 years right?

A set of Klipsch Promedia 4.1s is all I can think of. I have an old CRT from around then but I don't use it, just too lazy to get rid of it.
 
Rockford Fosgate 200x2 and 240x4 car amplifiers and a Phoenix Gold EQ in my cars since about 1997. My Pentium 4 3.06Ghz and Voodoo 4 4500 based retro gaming system is about 1-2 years away from being 10 years old as well. Besides those, I can't think of much else.

I have some older keyboards/mice/surge protectors around that age are still hanging around for backup purposes.

My 5.1 speakers are coming up on 7 years and I doubt I will retire them before 10.
 
I still use my HP Laserjet 4L (purchased in 1995) and I do have legacy systems (see sig) from the mid and late 80s which still work. I just refurbished the Amiga in my signature and it is currently on my desk.

EDIT: I also have my Scanjet 5p (purchased in 1997) hooked up and working.
