  30. 2007. A $2,500 pocket PC. Now worth... $200. Still runs Resident Evil. 🧟🎮

    Sony UX58. 4.5" touchscreen. Slide-out QWERTY. 484 grams. Intel single-core. Windows Vista (ugh). Upgrade to XP or Win7 to survive.

    Hardcore modders swapped in dual-core CPUs, extra fans, bigger SSDs.

    Then—Resident Evil 2 remastered. On your palm.

    Not e-waste. Digital treasure.
