Thanks to my nephew, was browsing the December
2000 edition of Popular Science online when I came across this super
fast (for the time) PC. Wow, only 14 years ago, $1,799 would pay for
128MB memory and a large 15GB hard drive.
These days memory is measured in GB and storage in Terabytes, with
prices down into the low hundreds of dollars. Current watches and
phones have more memory and storage than the old devices. We
probably can't conceive of what will happen during the next 14
years.
Am voting for a personal wearable eye device so I can watch 100
inch, or larger, fully immersive 4D TV with at least 8k resolution
and omnidirectional sound. Of course for the big game it will need
to be full wall TV picture and wall speakers. Am also thinking
wearable/implantable phone/PC devices with stretchable screens so
we can keep our pockets empty. Wouldn't it also be nice to
have a ceiling that glows with natural light instead of bulbs.
Ah, the mind wanders
