gollark: ... which we *have had*, modern computers are better than 30-year-old ones.
gollark: So, say, OLEDs, capacitative touchscreens (okay, I'm not sure how old those are), much faster RAM and new RAM technologies, laptops which you can actually carry, and transistors at the scale of tens of nanometres are not "new technologies"?
gollark: Laptops now are very different to ye olden laptops, touchscreens... are generally better now, I guess, LCDs can go to crazy resolutions and refresh rates and are being replaced by OLEDs in some areas, "microprocessors" is so broad and ignores the huge amount of advancement there.
gollark: I mean, yes, we have those still, but they're very broad categories.
gollark: What "20-30 year old technology"?
