One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
Independantly from the age question, I think that discarding 15 years old tools is completely misguided.
It shouldn't matter whether some tools is new or old, only whether it's good.
I know people making lots of money with emails.
That's right, a technology from 1960.
Beware of the cult of the new.

I think if you are still actively using the tools then it is fine to include. My comment was mainly around tools that you haven't used for 15 years.
