It’s interesting to look at these a couple of ways. It’s interesting that only 3 of them could have existed in the 19th century; that 3 of them are digital only, with no physical product and the others many of the others are reliant on the consumer electronic industry, with the good stuff only ocming out in the last 10 years or so.
