Funny thing is much of what we dreamed of/hoped for in the 80's we have today. Online gaming with voice chat and phones/communication where you can see each other are a couple examples.
The 80's was like a giant party. I think the 90's got more serious but I like the music from that decade better. Of course I lived in Seattle during the early 90's so I'm a bit biased.
The 70's, 80's, and 90's were all great. Even better depending on which era you grew up in. I might be biased but the 90's were the best. It was like the 70's and 80's had a baby.
