Mo, not exactly. They're still popular for homeschooling, etc. The newer type chalkboards are ceramic coated, so the liquid chalk can be used. You see them in restaurants, and nightclubs, and the writing looks like it's dayglow. Some of them are backlit. White boards (dry erase) are popular with the business crowd.

I already got my 5 prong line maker, so I can make the lines to teach them to print, my chalk, and my eraser. What breaks my heart is that I had 2 very large, real slate chalkboards, in perfect condition, that I kept from when I was very young. When we moved into the apartment, I kept them in a large, climate controlled storage unit for years. Finally, I figured I'd never live in a house again, and it was a waste of money to keep all my things in storage, so I gave them away. There are a LOT of things I got rid of in that storage unit, that I wish I had now.
