I'm in the equivalent of the dark ages as far as televison is concerned. I have a small combination radio/TV in my kitchen that's sometimes the one I watch the most (I turn it on while I'm cooking or cleaning up). And did I mention it's black and white? (Ask your grandparents what that is...) Then there's the television in the living room which is probably 15 years old. The rabbit ears get a pretty good picture for ABC but I'm used to "watching" CBS through snow. I bought a fancier indoor antenna a while back hoping it would help but it didn't.
I've been trying to decide what to do about the switch to digital next year. I don't really want cable. I don't want a huge TV because I don't watch that much. Maybe I should just give up on TV altogether.
Then I decided I want/need a TV in my sewing room so I bought the cheapest set I could find at Best Buy yesterday, hooked it up to the indoor antenna that didn't help the old TV, and powered it up. And discovered I can get the digital versions of the local channels and they look wonderful.
TV is not obsolete in my house.
