I get an engineering industry rag called Control Engineering.
Some interesting points made by an author:
5gb of memory cost $1,500,000,000 in 1960
5gb of memory cost $5,000 in 1995
5gb of memory now is a few bucks
In 1988, a complex linear model would take 82 years to solve; that same model today takes about a minute.
What will tech bring us in the next 50 years? I just can't imagine, but wish i could.
