Mark and I often talk about how technology often improve at different rates even in similar areas. Our go to example is cars (much better now than in 1980) versus airplanes (which have had a more mixed improvement record). However, the Oatmeal offers up a really good example in terms of computers versus printers. In a lot of ways, I suspect that this is an even better example than the cars versus planes one, as the modern desktop is massively cheaper and more powerful than what was state of the art twenty years ago
Worth a quick read for a Friday lunch break smile.
