Computer of the future

Thursday, January 12, 2006

Ever get frustrated at the rate of techonological progress these days? Well this ought to put things in perspective. It's a picture from a 1954 Popular Mechanics magazine depicting the home computer of 2004.

Compare to this, which Apple just released days ago. Too bad these guys had never heard of Moore's Law or, for that matter, the transistor.

    Ok, I don't know you, but I'm one of Steph Burum's Michigan girls and I just gotta say that some of those t-shirts are hilarious! Thanks for sharing :)

    I know! I still laugh so much I nearly cry when i think about the "Second Amendment" shirt. Pure Genius.

    Any friend of Steph's is a friend of mine (unless they're a Wolverine fan and it's football season). Welcome to my blog!

    Ha! I love the Hungy, Hungry Hippo T....and if I wasn't a girl and had the balls to wear it (no pun intended) I'd get the "I'd hit that" T with the pinata :)

    It is my lifelong dream to someday own that "You have died of dysentery" shirt. If only there were some way to realize my goal with minimal cost and hassle!

    Philip has that "Practice safe lunch, use condiments" shirt. He's clearly at the forefront of hilarious T-shirts (a very narrow field).
