    Technology that actually impressed me

    I was just reading in chat izzy saying future stuff was always quickly outdated and it made me think about future stuff/technology that did what it said on the tin or actually impressed me.

    Off the top of my head the two things that totally impressed me.

    DVD PLAYERS

    The first time I seen a DVD player on a decent tv I was "wow" the difference between the image clarity and my poxy old VHS tapes was unbelievable. Massive massive improvement in sound as well.


    THE INTERNET.

    My brother is a bit of geek and has cash to spunk away so always had decent quality home computers. I was in the pub one day and he was telling me about the internet and search engines and the like and I was it sounds shite go to the pub more.
    Next time I was as his house and takes me to the man cave and whips out his internet
    He showed me all the usual content we take for granted and it blew my mind it was so different from what i had saw before the fact he then went and down loaded tracks on to a cd made it like magic.

    You do get out of the habit which is maybe worse for your ear but you've reminded me that at least five minutes of each band rehearsal in the 90s in a 5 piece started with the misery of tuning up usually while shouting at the drummer to give it a fucking break.

    Sony Walkman high-res mp3 player, because it sounds way better than that piece of shit ipod. The fuckin' thing even has an EQ and a bass boost! A lot better than fragile CD and Cassette walkmans. Plus I put my whole music collection in this tiny fucker.
