Then there's land lines, cell phones, and now Dick Tracy watches.
Nothing to game consoles with pong to early PCs, and now cell phones that are more powerful than any of the old computers.
Encyclopedia sets and found girly magazines and now the Internet (to replace both).
Don't forget 3 channels to cable to VHS/Betamax to Bluray and now streaming.
