Old computer ads reminds us how far we have come...

I came across a post with 30 old PC ads that reminded me of how fast technology progresses. Some readers may remember or even owned some of the PCs in the ads and some of you will not have been born when the devices came out.  When you look at the prices like a 80MB hard drive for $12,000 it does bring home how far the tech industry has come.

My personal favourite is the ZX81 complete with a massive 1K of RAM! I actually had one of these as a kid and the 16k RAM pack complete with RAM pack wobble feature (anybody that had one will know what I mean!)
