90's tech....

Nostalgia really does give a rose tinted view of the past....

It seems so hard for younger people to grasp that tech at the time is the only time it's revolutionary. That quickly fades as it becomes commonplace. Today's tech is only revolutionary today, so I'm look forward to the tech coming in the next 10 years, 2017 vs 2027. Especially when younger people then will be commenting on and wondering how people today ever wore those VR headsets.

Case in point, Windows 95, I have great memories at the time of getting to use it instead of Windows for workgroups 3.11.
I never saw this video at the time and I was never a friends viewer but I can't even watch this video today without skipping large parts of it.
This video should be burned.... My nostalgia for the 90's has just been shot in the back....
