@mkb @Lana @futurebird Not to be disagreeable, but I giggled that your two (quite valid) examples both still feel forever young to me.I still can't look at an Apple II with anything other than awe. And of course the iPhone was revolutionary.

@mkb @Lana @futurebird yes. That feeling gets it me, as well.I'm a fan of this effect in one weird specific way: I collect what I all "re-retro" devices - like the "NES Mini" - remakes of a nostalgic piece of technology, but replicated with newer technology.I love all the little trade-off decisions each device has - between convenience and authenticity.My favorite example is a Commodore 64 clone that shipped with a large metal plate inside - to make it weigh the correct amount, in spite of the electronics taking 1/10 th the space inside.

@futurebird the sign is a good idea. Soemtimes a little nudge is all it takes.

@foone I got a pocket sized eBook reader (XT E-Ink 4). I am delighted with it, daily.
