Not Ranked
I am still young (36), but saw the evolution of the home PC from our first "real" computer, an IBM with dual 5.25" disk drives and no hard drive back in 1980 for about $5000. I remember my dad upgrading the RAM to 512K (I think), and that was a big deal back then
What I think is intesting my kids generation (the are 8 and 5). They have no concept of the pre computer era, and would literally not know what a typewriter was if they saw one, but have been able to log on to the computer since about 2 years old.
There are some evenings where we have four people online at the same time, two desktops, two laptops both wireless, fast, and can't live without it........
