Redundant technology
Music on vinyl records, mobile phones the size of house bricks and pornography printed on paper. What hideously out of date stuff do you still use?
Thanks to boozehound for the suggestion

The Shorter OED is great
Got mine for £16 from Oxfam.
I'd never buy a full set as they're incredibly expensive and I haven't got room, but I love pulling out one of the volumes of the Shorter OED to get a properly thorough answer on something.
Also - Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable is an old-fashioned reference joy.
