Actually I am old enough to remember the very first TVs to hit the mass market -- they were like 12" Emersons. Before that, we would listen to Gangbusters and Dragnet on the radio.
There are still a few kit outfits out there. Mostly catering to amateur radio tinkerers. I like the Raspberry PI concept. An all in one computer on a small platform.

I, too miss the old Rat Shack. Haven't been in one in a long time.
