Micro World

One thing that makes this time period significant is the ability to make transistor arrays microscopic and cram billions of them into a tiny space. SD cards are quite cheap these days and I find the stamp sized cartridges to be very easy to get hold of. They can store billions of characters of Data. (Several hours of high quality video) . If your phone is low on memory, you can insert a micro SD card and expand the memory of the device. It will store all your pictures and app data.

The same is true of smart TV sticks or circuit boards for smart TVs. They render high quality  video and sound and send it to the TV. When I was born, a computer that can handle the graphics of PAC Man was astonishing. 

That is the highlight of the week sometimes, sitting down on a late evening when I'm off duty with a nice cup of tea  and looking through the menu of Netflix for something interesting to see.
