in the past a good computer was the size of an entire room
Image

now it fits in your lap.
Image

in the past a harddrive was the size of a round table.
Image

now it fits it in the palm of your hand
Image

in the past a wireless phone was the size of your head
Image

now it can fit into your ear
Image

in the past if you wanted to listen to your songs on the road you had to have a boombox on your shoulder
Image

now you can clip it on your belt
Image

in the past a power adapter covered two outlets
Image

and now it....o wait... never mind :/

Amazing at how far we've advanced in technology in the past few decades. I wonder if our views of the future will seem as far fetched to the future generations as these ideas and technologies do to us now.

Those are good trekkie. I have a power transformer that takes up three spots on a power strip that goes long-ways.

Shane, has that picture been edited or is that how it was originally? It looks like that computer could occupy a family of four, lol.

A Kid asked Jesus, "How much do you love me?" and Jesus said. "This much."
And spread his arms out on the cross and died.
If you believe that he did this for you put this in your signature.

That's the original version as far as I know. It was a demonstration piece only, obviously never got developed.
