EXCERPT: Today's pricey, high-tech gadget may be tomorrow's has-been, little more than the seed for some cooler innovation to come. That was certainly the case with these once cutting-edge home appliances of the past. Take the percolator, for instance. Sure, it's been supplanted by Mr. Coffee and Keurig, but it was a high-tech invention in its time. Take a tour through these 11 appliances that were considered state-of-the-art when they were introduced. While some are truly obsolete, you may find others reassuringly familiar....

I still have a percolater, though I don't use it. (It's in a box in the basement, I think, along with everything else.)

Some of the things in their slide-show are still commonly being used. Blenders, for example. Lots of blenders still bopping around. People use'em to make smoothies.
