142 Years

Attending a management training session the other week my team was presented as having a total of 67 years of experience. Not initally flattered I understood that this was a good thing.
When it comes to audio components does this translate or is time to join the 21st century? I added up the ages of each of my primary components and was shocked.
1) Amplifier = 39 years
2) Preamp = 11 years
3) Turntable = 19 years
4) Phono Pre = 17 years
5) NAK = 17 years
6) Reel to Reel = 24 years
7) Speakers = 15

Is this a bad thing or a good thing. How much experience does your rig bring to the table? In the general scheme of things, is my system middle aged or over the hill? Well what do you think you whippersnappers!
Please do not take this post seriously. I just had some free time.

My current system must be getting up there as well. Let's see: Here is my current setup:
Pioneer SX-1250=27
Thorens TD145=25 (approx.)
JBL L100's=30
Yamaha Cassette deck=20
Yamaha CD=17
Total of 119

Other stuff that I have laying around...
Marantz 2238b, 27
Kenwood KR-7600, ~26
JBL 4311's, 27
SAE A7 integrated, I think about 25 y.o.
Matching T7 tuner
Another set of L-100's, 30

Some day I'll have to break down and buy something new.
