🎞 Power of Compound Growth
The entire Sun render farm for Toy Story (1995) had (v roughly) 1bn CPU transistors.
#Apple’s A8 SoC (iPhone 6): 2bn.
That is, on a basic measure, a 2 year old phone now has more computing power than was used to render Toy Story.

A recent survey by YouGov has shown, 67% of the 6 to 18 year olds in the UK don't know what a floppy disk is. Other essentially obsolete tech such as overhead projectors (once present in almost every classroom), and pagers were recognised even less.
