Archaspec

What is Archaspec?

1.

Marketing copy used in advertisements and product literature, especially high-technology, that trumpets their high specifications and exciting new features that in the present day seem quaint or almost unbelieveable.

Also can be used to describe a product that is obsolete, laughably so.

eg. 'Fully expandable to 27K of RAM' (Commodore Vic 20 computer)

Even his cellphone was an archaspec - no bluetooth, no camera, just a brick with an antenna.

See obsolete, archaic, computers, technology, old-fashioned
