End of an era

I know that this is not a very exiting blip but it represents a big step forward into the 21st. century as far as technology is concerned. the 2 tape decks and the tuner have languished in our "hi-fi" unit doing nothing for quite some time now as you can see from the dust. They have not been used for a long time and at last my husband decided they should go. Of course they haven't made it out of the living room yet but I am ever hopeful!
