Between my dad's record collection and mine we had just over 300 records dad was an Elvis fan so lots of those and tons of Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton and others of that era. My record collection was mostly of '60's and '70's "pop and rock" with several kids records thrown in.

That all died when cassette tapes came in

I had a little mini record player as kid that could play the records for the read-a-long books they came with. My parents had a nice cabinet record player and 8-track unit. The 8 track ate tapes but the record player had a really rich sound to it, lasted over 40 years before it finally died.

Priceless moment was when my friend's 5 year old asked her if grandma and grandpa let her play with the iPad when she was little I remember when phones had cords stuck to the wall and rotary dials. My iPhone has more computing and graphics power than the $75,000 Silicon Graphics Unix machines we used to use in University about 18 or 20 years years ago.

Man I'm getting old...
