3.5 drive / disks
zip drive / disks
floppy disks sleves
floppy disk holders
IDE ATA (hasnt got long to go now that optical drives are on sata)

vga ( monitor display setting & port of choice for monitors )
cga
monochrome
15 inch and below displays
CRT monitors
4:3 aspect ratio

modems
900 baud
1200 baud
2400 baud
4800 baud
9600 baud
14.4 baud
28.8 baud

wired keyboards
wired mice
one botton mice
two button mice

DDR (Still used by those whom have not caught up to technology) tongue.gif
RIMM (never really took off with anyone other than niche markets)
SDRAM
EDORAM
RDRAM

AOL
Compuserve
BBSs

MS DOS
Windows 3x
Win 95
Win 98
Win ME
Win 2k

Packard Bell (In the US)

Cyrix Processors
Term "Intel Compatible"

8088

268
286 (and designations)
386 ""

I wish I could get rid of my keyboard and instead be able to type via mind control. Is that anywhere close to happening?

I think the next noticebale step is going to be phasing out of current hard drives for solid state hard drives (bigger versions of the flash drives we use now).
