He used the correct term and the right context. A p51 is an obsolete aircraft but its still used and quite valuable. We all know in the land of computers regardless of its platform 1 year later it is basically obsolete not because it doesn't work or hold value but because everything that is currently being released pretty much destroys it.

Except, read what he just said, after he quoted my post.:

Which still fits the definition of obsolete. I dont see the issue here. You sure your not just trying to argue just for the sake of arguing? I mean if obsolete does not fit old ass video games and consoles what the hell does it fit?

Just stop. He used obsolete to mean worthless. Which it doesn't. He even posted again reaffirming that. So, why are you even posting again? Are you trying to argue for the sake of it?

No i dont argue just to argue. He used a word that was fitting for the topic at hand and you keep saying he's wrong. An objects value is subjective from person to person. People spend millions on paintings i would pay 5 bucks for. The games and consoles are obsolete. Thats why the bulk of them aren't even made anymore. Someone may want them and that makes them valuable to that person but it makes them no less obsolete. In some cases being obsolete makes things valuable ie 69 yenko camaro. Im a big fan of old cars but there is no denying new cars have rendered their technology obsolete. Same could be said for many things but it still makes none of them any more obsolete against todays products. So yes in his post he agreed they are worthless and gave several perfect examples of why they are obsolete but as i said value is subjective to each individual. So you may see a value in what he has to sell where myself and MT do not.
