Cost of Technology Is A Real Bargain Now

Watermark Learning was founded in 1992. Besides our founding, a lot was going on that year. Here are some noted firsts and other happenings in April of 1992.

If you think the cost of technology is still more than you can afford, consider this: In May 1992, the cost of 4 gigabytes of flash memory was approximately $500,000, meaning that today’s iPod Nano would cost about $1 million if it existed back then!

Here are some other significant news items from May 1992:

  • May 13 – Three astronauts simultaneously walked in space for the first time.
  • May 19 – The 27th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is ratified, prohibiting Congress from raising its own salary.
  • May 20 – India launches its first space satellite without assistance from other nations.
  • May 22 – Johnny Carson’s final appearance as host of the Tonight Show; three days later Jay Leno becomes permanent host of the Tonight Show.
