I miss the silver plastic era of AV equipment. Like in the mid-to-late 2000s when every TV was made of silver plastic, and it had that set of composite jacks under a flap on the front, so you could temporarily plug things in, like when your buddy brought his PS2 over. There was a button near the channel and volume buttons that switched between inputs, and it didn't take a digital act of congress to figure out which setting would get it to display on the TV.

And that flap broke on every tv you had, so they all had the connectors exposed and hella ugly

My plastic flap is still intact. Probably because I only ever had it open since I couldnt be bothered to use the rear ports.
