When I was younger (before marriage, kids and a mortgage), I was an "early adopter".

I bought by first CD Player in 1986 for $800 (then realized quickly I couldn't afford the CD's) That was a lot of cash in those days.

Bought my first DVD player in 1998 for 1K. Now you can buy a CD/DVD/Blu-ray player for under $100.

I bought a 32" tube TV in 1992 for $1200, now you can get a 60" flatscreen for under $800.

I still love the new stuff, but am in no rush to blow huge amounts of cash anymore. I know I am starting to sound like my dad and I am OK with that.

Thank you Axiom for putting out such a terrific affordable products to begin with, it's probably saved me a bunch over the years.
