The 50 best tech products of all time

Last year, PCWorld gave us the 25 Worst Tech Products of All Time. Proving perhaps that there's more good than bad in the world, they now give us (via Dwight) the 50 Best Tech Products of All Time. Looking through the list, I can say I've used something like 29 of these 50 items, including 8 of the top 10 (never had a Motorola StarTAC phone, never used Napster). Some of these items brought back very fond memories - CompuServe (my first ever email address)! The Atari VCS/2600! Amazingly, some of these things are still in use in some form, 20+ years after their debut. Check it out.

Not a very good summary: note that the Iomega Zip Drive is number 15 on the Worst list and number 23 on the Best list.
