Did you begin using a cell phone between 1990-2000? 1998 I think
Did you begin using a digital camera 1990-2000? around the same time as above
Did you begin using a CD player 1990-2000?1993 I think
Did you begin using a DVD player 1990-2000?Possibly after 2000, we were late to the game for this one, only when extended version DVD's become popular at the Video rental store did we make the switch, also tough to do with 1989 RCA
Begin using two or more of the above 1990-2000? Yes
How about stopped renting videos and joined Netflix option? Last year!

Saw this article on MSN.com today, and it reminded me of this recent poll. So I thought I would post the link to the article on tech toys and their changes over the lst 20 years. Hope you can read it.

Good link Robert.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

I got into CD's in the mid 90's when it became obvious that they were going to replace cassettes. I don't think they really took off until the Beatles albums were reintroduced on CD.
