There's always something new coming down the pipe, whether it's just an incremental improvement or a paradigm shift. This is why you should never buy any technology that isn't over twenty years old, and therefore mature. No one's going to be abandoning the internal combustion engine or radar anytime soon. Go get yourself a nice radome today. Who wouldn't want to track weather patterns, commercial aircraft, and secret government weapons projects? Not to your taste? How about a piston engined aircraft? Grumman used to make some very nice torpedo bombers, and I hear this North American "Mustang" is a pretty sweet little fighter with a good range. Scared to fly? Try eight-track casettes! I'm sure you can find some old Cheech and Chong material for a very reasonable price. Obselete technology: your friend from the anti-future, where everything is like it used to be. I think they call it the passed or something. Remember Moore’s Law. There’s always something new coming down the pipe, whether it’s just an incremental improvement or a paradigm shift.
