Lots of old fixtures use starters, but they have a mag ballast too. T12 magnetic ballasts are on the government's hit list of non environmentally friendly products, and I believe there's even timelines for when the lamps will no longer be sold.
I'm actually typing this under the light of such a fixture, I wouldn't go out of my way to install one, the time delay when you turn it on is a little annoying, but it came with the house and still works, so why not keep it.
