I will still use my old stuff, no matter what they say! I live with the hope than one day more and more peple will understand what true qualty means.
I wished that people here would love old things too - even that they are not Made in Romania or the former Eastern Block. But we have one exception: second-hand cars - but here is also about the price.
Talking about cell phones, mynes are about 5-6 yrs. old. The only thing that bothers me abot them is that they don't ring so loud-so somtimes when I'm on the street or riding public tranpsortation I can't hear them - and I can't block some phone numbers in order thhat people can't call me.
An BIG Off-topic: in the factory near the high-school that I learned was a computer repair shop where they had a lot of old computer components: keybords from the '80's, magnetic tape for computer memory, 386 type computers, computer monitors from the early '90's, 5.25" F.D.D., Romanian made desktop electronic calculators. Because they where forced to moved they dumped all those things...
And omse people would have comite murder to have those things... In Romanian, schools, high-schools, univeristyes, state owned companies can't sell the old computers. They must destroy them. The people who are ruling Romania shoul be imprisioned for a long time and theyr's belongings should be confiscated, because they did almost nothing good for the country.
