I think about this map a lot.

www.bloomberg.com/graphics/201...
This is a cartogram map of the United States depicting land use by different categories. The map distorts state shapes to represent proportional land usage. Key land use types include cow pasture/range (covering much of the central U.S.), private and federal timberland in the Pacific Northwest, corporate timberland in the Southeast, and urban housing/commercial areas in the Northeast. Other categories include agriculture (livestock feed, wheat exports, ethanol/biodiesel, cotton), protected lands (national parks, federal wilderness, state parks), and infrastructure (railroads, airports, highways). Additional specialized land uses include wildfires, golf courses, Christmas tree farms, and maple syrup production.

Sony's design team knew how to make it feel like you were holding the future in your hands. I remember being wowed with mobile web browsing on the PSP back in 2004

Name another piece of tech that was ahead of its time as much as the PSP
