Memories from 2008

I can remember paying 400 dollars for a 420 MB Conner HD and thinking it was a deal. When CD burners came out I spent 7 something on a HP 6020i and then had to buy a SCSI card on top of that to make it work. Used to pay 20 bucks for a 5 pack of blank Imation discs. When I had my store in the late 90s and early 2000s I bought a 14" flat screen to show off as a demo in the front office and it was over a thousand bucks!

Now I can Blu Ray burner for cheap if I need one, can carry around 128 gigs or more of data on a chip the size of my fingernail, and my pair of 27" LED monitors cost less than 300. Crazy how cheap stuff has become.
