Although this may not be the first time these types of technology hit the market, in the 1980's these are the products people would have stood in line for, much like they do for the iPad and iPhone today. You'll also find the hottest gadgets of the 1970s and 1960s.

Sure, the kids today will laugh at the "old technology", but these gadgets were absolute game-changers when they came out. Nothing like them existed previously -- no personal music player, no computer gaming, no watching movies at home "on demand", no ability to send a photograph or page of text to another person (without snailmail), etc.
I'm old enough (44) to remember "the days before", and it's been a lot of fun watching technology make progress and spread out so just about everybody can take advantage of it.
