Both you guys are drunk. Not a smartphone, more likely a remote control for the TV and are you kidding about the CD's in 1989? I had dozens of them by that time and I was still a teenager! CD format was released in what, 1982. By the mid 80's, had my own machine. Late 80's, worked at a CD only store, who went with the LIFT display system. European design, which allowed you flip through the cd's one by one, like LP's. Very cool stuff! :love:
I agree. I can't believe that we're debating that any black rectangle in a 1980s/90s photo must be a smart phone from the FUTURE! Steve Jobs didn't invent the rectangle shape.
And in 1989 I entered university with a room mate who had a CD player and acquired at least that many CDs that year. His shelf looked pretty similar. Besides, who said this is even a 1989 photo? Could be 1993 for all I know and many people had at least a dozen CDs by that year.
Besides, it WAS taken between 1992-1995. A Google image search reveals its source:
