Ok I am always on the
lookout for excellent info on
new technology. Today, I
ran across a very
fun piece of content that talks
about technology from a new
angle. Today’s fun post is titled new technology and electronic gadgets of 1983 .
A look at the hi tech gadgets and toys that were available in 1983. Cassette players, mini televisions, and robots were the big hits.

I love videos like these. They are so much fun to watch. Twenty-five years from now people will be laughing at our iPads and Android phones.

Throughout the 90s we had a prehistoric 80s TV, woodgrain and all, with huge dials that clicked when you turned them and a back so thick you could play a game of Monopoly on the top of it.
Now we have a LED LCD, almost as thin as paper, high def and able to access all the crap off the internet.
Both cost the same in real dollar terms.
I’d love to hook up the old TV and see if the picture looks like a toddler’s urine soaked crayon drawing compared to the Monet of the LCD.

“CD players were not even around in 83″
Yeah. They came out in 1982 in Japan. Elsewhere in the world, including the USA, CD came out in 1983.

This is great! I guess the robot thing didn’t really catch on back then though.
Well, looks like we finally might start seeing robots in homes in this new decade.
