Who says digital technology is obsolete in 6 months? Not me.

I have an old 30gig iPod that I got for Christmas in 2006. I've played it every day in all that time, and since I started practicing medicine in 2010, all day, every day. (I use my iPod station-player as office music while I'm charting patient visits). And as of this morning, this old iPod just reached 50% capacity on the hard drive. Barring a drop in a rain-puddle or something, I foresee years of use out of this thing.

with a burn-in on the screen, but I still use it all the time. It sounds fine and other than the burn-in it works fine.
