Technology

My parents continue to move into the 70s. They have apparently got an electric typewriter. They've been getting into VHS video a bit recently too. Still, it must be difficult if you grew up with wireless and 78s. Maybe when I'm in my seventies, younger relatives will smile and shake their heads sadly over my inexplicable addiction to mp3s and blogs.

How on earth do you get ribbons, let alone more 'serious' spares for an elecie typewriter?

Does anyone still make elecie typewriters?

I've not seen one since... errrrr... errrrrr.... sometime in the early 1990s?

I don't know. They seem to have found somewhere that still has them. Who buys this stuff - office managers with nostalgia for typing pools?
