Do you still have a Black and White TV

With the advent of the color Tv it is hard to find anyone with a Black & White TV now, so I was surprised to read this morning on a local advertising site that someone was giving away one for free. Do you still have a Black & White TV in your home? Would you watch one? Or are you hooked on the color Tv's now?

I haven't seen the black and white TV for nearly 20 years. I will keep it well as an antique if I could find one.

I never had a black and white TV, though I've heard that black and white are okay for the eyes, rather than watching a coloured television.

Both of my tv's are color but they old as dirt. They both hooked up to cable so they work on remote control. One has the knob you turn the channels with, the other one has the buttons from 1 to 13. But they work great.

We sold our Black and White TV way back in 1985 which is now 23 years ago. Since then we have had around 7 color TV. So yes, I do not have a Black and White TV with me at home. I would not really enjoy watching a Black and White now, though some clippings look better in Black and White. Cheers! Ram

We still have our black and white TV although it's not working anymore. I can still remember back when I was around 2-3 years old, I always watch the white dot get smaller and smaller when we turn the TV off. If I get my hands on one that is working, I'd really keep it. I wouldn't mind watching it in Black and White. Colored TVs have been around for years though and almost all of us are used to seeing colored pictures. I can even rarely see notices on TV shows like "shown in technicolor" and such. It's mostly on old shows and movies that I see them. ahhh.. The good old days. Take care!

I think black and white tv are like antiques now. It would be very expensive to get one now. Judging by someone giving away probably it cannot work now. I am not sure but i think tv with colour seems better as i am used to it.
