2. And having to disconnect from the internet when your mum or dad wanted to use the phone.
3. The children of the future will never, ever have to deal with the dial-up sound that haunted you.

4. Or the pressure of taking a photo and hoping for the best as you waited for your film to be printed.
5. The kids of tomorrow will never understand the wrath of your siblings if you accidentally taped over their video.

10. Our future children and grandchildren will 100% laugh at the fact we upgraded from a Walkman to a Discman.
11. Before embracing the technology that was an iPod, and feeling like we had hit peak technology.

15. Our future grandchildren's projects will probably be all submitted online, with no WordArt title page necessary.
16. They'll never have the problem of sitting at the computer for an extra couple minutes, making sure it was safe to turn off.

19. Or the disappointment of buying a new CD and not having the lyrics in the booklet.
20. They'll never get the same excited nerves that happened when your teen crush logged in to MSN messenger.

22. They'll never need to worry about having extra coins in order to call home and get your parents to pick you up.
