Museum ≠ old.

I'm sure there are mp3 players in museums as well.

The Colorado Railroad Museum has railroad crossing signals donated by BNSF that are only a few years old. Museums will gladly accept both old and new.

Yup. I'm pretty sure the Computer Museum out in Mountain View has stuff on display that's less than 5 years old in some of their "progress of technology" type displays. I think when I last went there a couple years ago, for gaming history they had all the latest (at the time) consoles as well. It was pretty funny seeing something like a PS4 in a history museum though.
