I love the question in panel 4, back in 2003, a high def TV could cost a fair bit of coin!
https://www.twice.com/product/flat-panel-television-sales-surging-strongly-2003-48705Thinking back almost 20 years: popular technology included flip top cell phones with text capability and flat screen TVs, and computers at the time (for example the PowerMac G5 and the Pentium M chip were new) seemed cutting edge but today would be relics. My Space and the XBox had just come out. How much will technology have changed between now and another 18 years; 20239??
