Decade 1980s

Commodore Vic-20 Computer

1981

Computers have changed and continue to change each year with new updates of software. Computers have changed from being blocky to being a flat screen and laptop. They were much more expensive in the early stages but now anyone can almost get a laptop inexpensive.

CD Player

1982

This changed the way we listened to music and being able to download our own music and listen to it wherever was cool too. Since everything has mostly gone to digital CDs are in a way not as popular as they used to me be.

DNA Finger Printing

1984

I find this is so fascinating DNA finger printing was discovered by accident! Can find criminals, track long lost family members, help cure disease.

Disposable Camera

1986

Cameras were really expansive back in the day so when disposable cameras came out it helped people to leave there nice expensive cameras at home like camping, parties or events that wouldn't damage the nice camera.

Nintendo Game Boy

1989

Game Boy a handled game was a fun game to have and share with friends playing games like Tetris.
