Anyone still have a B&W tv?

Just curious

I still have my old B & W tv that I had in my bedroom as a little girl. I have no clue if it still works, but I can't let it go. I'm sentimental in some weird ways!

There is a small one (13") in a spare bedroom (actually now my walk-in closet....). Just never got rid of it.

Yeah...a small one hand-held one, somewhere in the closet.

Although, growing up as a child, we didn't get a color tv until 1980, and let's not even TALK about cable, my grandparents were sooooooo behind the times .

At work yes. I work at a TV station and there are 40 monitors in each of our control rooms, 38 in each are black and white. About the same at the other TV station I worked at 5 years ago. Most of those are 9", and still work, and to replace them with newer color monitors would require them to build all new cabinets since new TV's at 16x9 and they wouldn't fit in the space available.

At home, no, I took my 9" Panasonic B & W that I bought in 1975 and took to college, my Sony Watchman with a 2" screen, and a Sanyo handheld 2" to an e-waste event about 6 months ago. There was no way to hook up a converter box to the little TV's, and I haven't used the Panasonic in years, so got ride of them.

I had a little 9" portable TV sitting in the closet for the longest time. When the TV stations finally switched to all digital, there was no way to hook it up to a converter box, so I tossed it.

Yes. It is hooked up to my electronic Dart board.
