Nice specs and seems like a nice carry around point and shoot. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W830: Digital Photography Review

I would look into getting a spare battery or two. There is a kit on Adorama (search google for Adorama, I have used them before and they are a good site) for $151 with a spare battery, case, 32 gig card and card reader.

Last year, a client sent me photos on a floppy disk :eek: I had to special order an external reader! She was still using her tried and true Sony Mavica .....

A few relics from my desk drawer. The 100Meg Zip drive was the cat's ass. Also note the 8Meg Memory Stick :D

I didn't have to leave my desk to grab one of these babys. I use them every day. To write notes on. They also make great bookmarks.

Memory didn't used to be cheap!
 

these are dinner plate sized
 

Together they add up to 200mb!

That punch card gives me a sense of dread and fear from the Engineering School days :mad:

360K floppies, 5 1/4" wide.

my new Droid Turbo smart phone I ordered with 64 gig of internal memory.



insane the density and lean power density.


VHS and BETA tapes will make a comeback.

Dr. Who doing a promo for PR1ME computer. We used a Prime 300 with 1.5MB disk packs that cost $75. You weren't cool if you didn't have your own disk pack.

Yeha, but I actually have the tape here at my desk here in the office

I have VAX tapes here. The 1.5MB disk pack is at my house. Finding a disk drive to read it would only be slightly worse than trying to find an 8" floppy disk reader!
