The XBox 360 release is closer to the (US) release of the NES than it is to the current day.

Reading this was physically painful.

Dang. That wasn't supposed to be a challenge... That will have eventually become true no matter what tbh.

Similarly, Windows XP's release is closer to the release of the IBM 5150 (the first-ever IBM PC) than it is to today.

		But the difference in computing power is more impressive between the first IBM PC in 1981 and a new PC from 2001, than between a new PC from 2001 and now. At least subjectively (it might be that software in general got more slower than hardware got faster).
