Young Bill Gates looking smug with his 640 KB of RAM like he just invented the future. Spoiler alert: that "nobody will ever need more" prediction aged like milk in the Arizona sun. Today's Chrome browser alone laughs in the face of 640 KB while casually consuming 8 GB just to display three tabs—one of which is definitely YouTube playing in the background.

The irony? That single Microsoft logo on the screen probably takes more memory to render in modern Windows than the entire OS did back then. We went from "640 KB ought to be enough for anybody" to "32 GB and my computer still sounds like a jet engine." Progress is beautiful.
