Our favorite 90s show, Friends, premiered on September 22, 1994- that's 22 years ago!! It's crazy to think about how much technology changed in the last 22 years. Here are five old school tech products Rachel, Ross, Phoebe, Monica, Joey and Chandler used on the show.

1. Answering Machines

Monica accidentally changed Richard's voicemail message when she just thought she was leaving him a voicemail! Now anyone that calls Richard's phone will be greeted by Monica's message. 

2. Old School Laptop

Chandler shows the group his brand new laptop and is way too excited about it. It has "spreadsheet capabilities," but he'll just use it for games.

3. Internet Dating

Chandler meets a girl online and chats with her about her interests. The two have never met in person, so Phoebe questions if Chandler's girlfriend is actually a girl. When the two meet they instantly fall in love!

4. Cookbooks

Rachel tries to make her friends dessert, but the pages of her cookbook got stuck together. She ended up making Sheppard's Pie and an English Trifle-yuck!

5. Skype

It wasn't called Skype back then, but Monica's rich boyfriend Pete was able to video message three people at the same time in his lavish condo.
