A Nostalgia-Tinged Thread About Obsolete Tech for Millennials Who Want to Feel Old

Seems like just yesterday I was playing snake on my indestructible Nokia 3310 and asking my parents to buy me a clear glacier GameBoy Advance. Now they're literally putting Microsoft Zunes and iMac G3s in museums. If you needed another reason to feel old, this Twitter thread full of nostalgic pictures of old tech will take you on a trip down memory lane. What was up with all the colorful transparent hardware in the 90s? And can we bring that back? Today's world of slick, elegant design could use a little tackiness. And I don't know what 'computer class' means to today's kids, but for us millennials, it was dying of dysentery in Oregon Trail.
