Happy Birthday, Mp3Man!
posted by Steve on 12th, 2008
The MP3 player -well, this one -is already ten years old. For about $250, the mpman and its 32MB of flash-based storage would hold about a dozen songs of average length. And of course to make things even more inconvenient, songs were loaded in via your computer’s parallel port.
Thankfully, the Diamond Rio came along shortly thereafter and gave you everything the mpman boasted, and tossed in track controls, a four-position equalizer AND a smart card slot for $50 less.
