I wanted something to show the transition from New to Old. What better than the extremely short shelf life of modern Techno Gear? This used video game store is filled with last year's techno toys...at bargain prices.

The run-down store is located on Bullard Street in Silver City, NM.

You can tell from my commentary that I was trying to make a statement about the rapid obsolescence of tech gear. A Commodore 64 would have totally missed the point. Guess my intent did not come through in the photograph.


I can understand that view becuase technically all of those are old. It should say XBOX 360, PS3, Gameboy DS, Blueray and probably Wii.
