Gadgets: Jetson or Flintstone?

[Roshi]

All of the above, most of them included in one tiny technological appliance:

iPhone

The Flintstones had plenty of gadgets too, they were just dinosaur-powered.

yabut, dinos and peoples never existed at the same time unless you count gators and such.

You lie. I saw it on TV.

I have:

Flatscreen LCD
VCR
DVD player and/or recorder
Home Theatre System
Boombox or Shelf Unit System
Personal Desktop Computer
Laptop Computer
Printer
Scanner
Gaming Console
Celphone
Bluetooth for celphone
Hair Blower
Cordless Phone
GPS
MP3 Player (includes iPods)
Portable CD Player
Digital Camera
Camcorder
Microwave
Electric Shaver and/or beard trimmer
Electric Tootbrush
Dishwasher

I just don't have the plasma TV, Blu-Ray, and Blackberry, mainly out of lack of interest, and the garage door opener because I have a carport rather than a garage.

I once saw that you can detoxify your body with pads you stick to your feet overnight and some Caribbean woman can tell if someone's cheating on you from a conversation on the phone.

I'd prefer it if I could phone up a Caribbean woman to detoxify my body with pads she sticks on her feet, but whatever.

Well, there's the MOLLER -that's what I'd call a sexy machine .

It looks good, hovers twenty feet in the air attached to a tether, gets forty years worth of Popular Mechanics/Popular Science articles that never once question its (lack of) performance, and draws fraud claims like nobody's business. Pretty much useless beyond that, though.

None of the above (still stuck in the mid 20th century)

How do you expect these to answer the poll?

Up until about two years ago my roommate had none of the above. Or you could be a homeless bum.

This actually underlies my point that there are many people in our society today who could still exist without many of our gadgets while others cannot imagine their everyday existence without them. And there are even more people around the world who might not have any of them as well.

And in reference to something mentioned above if you have an all-in-one device then you qualify as having a printer, a scanner, a copier and possibly even a fax as well.

Then how about the Terrafugia Transition? -It doesn't look very good but you might actually end up having one -if flying is your sort of thing.

It would make a decent movie prop. Or lawn ornament.
