I used to love this old, heavy radio that I salvaged when someone dumped it on the corner of their driveway. It was really substantial and the case was completely made out of solid wood. This modern day iPhone dock kind of reminds me of that, since it has the same look and period feel.

When I talk about retro tech, I’m usually going on about stuff from the late 1970s or early 1980s since those were the years that really defined me as the geek that I am today. The 1930s, on the other hand, are just a wee bit before my time.

Crosley portable turntables have been around since the 1950’s. Now they’ve added a modern spin to their briefcase-like record players by adding the ability to easily rip tracks to your Windows PC or Mac. The Crosley Keepsake USB Turntable not only lets you play back and listen to your old albums through its built-in stereo speakers, but includes a USB output.
