The BBS discussion reminds me of the "First" computer I had...
When a 200 meg hard drive was $200, and now you can get 2 terabyte drives cheaper.
When a 1/2 meg video card cost more than some 1 Gig video cards now cost.
That I pay $30 for broadband and I used to pay $20 for dial up.
When sound cards were over $200 and now they're cheap for 7.1 surround sound.
14" color monitors were $200 and now you can get 22" widescreen monitors cheaper.
My first 4X CD reader was $200, and now I have a $22 DVD R/W setup.
4 Megs of Memory was $200, now you can get 16 GB cheaper.
My 33 MHZ 486 cpu cost more than 2.6 ghz dual cores cost now.
Boy technology has advanced.
