In your daily life, it might not feel like technology is advancing, but look back through the decades and you’ll see much has changed. Devices that once dominated our homes and offices are no more, or at least look and function very differently.
At How-To Geek, we’re dedicating an entire week to old technology, from September 8 to 14. Whether you remember using MS-DOS or you don’t know a time before the iPhone, join us as we celebrate classic gadgets and software.

Some Technology Has Stood the Test of Time
While it’s fair to say that some old technology is best forgotten, there is plenty of tech that has stood the test of time.
Tech Throwback Week on How-To Geek
We’ve dug out our old gadgets, like the PalmPilot and Sony Mavica camera, to see how they hold up today. We’ve also booted into old operating systems, reminisced about websites that once ruled the internet, and streamed movies with hilariously retro technology. All of this and much more awaits you in our Tech Throwback Week.
