...and with that knowledge on hand, just think - despite how cool, fast and convenient things are now - what will be commonplace and "eh, no big deal..." in just 15-20 years from now.

We'll look back on 2020-2021 as "the old days" and chuckle about todays SSD speeds, stock RAM amounts ("How did we even get anything done?!"), what ports/connections we couldn't live without, display resolutions, pricing, etc.

20 years ago, I thought 100MB Zip drives/disks were the end-all/be-all of storage and transportation.

"Guys, I believe this is plenty...this is the future!"

I can go to Office Depot right now and get a little orange or green Lexar 32GB thumb drive for about $5-6.

And in another 20 years, that's going to look as dated and old-timey as a Zip disk does today.

"Hey, I see they've got those 8TB MicroDotz™ on sale for $7.99 this week...".
