Still using a couple 56k modems at work (for some messaging) and some of our users, with Laptops, still use the internal modems to connect to work from their cabins as no DSL\Broadband.

Re: Obsolete Technology

In the 40's & 50's I lved in the country we had paraffin lamps and candle's for lighting, a earth closet for a toilet, a radio that was run on a acculimator which we took to the local garage to be recharged every weeek, coal & wood fires fires and a bath in front of the kitchen range on Sunday evening. Oh those were the days.
