Also it was interesting how the availability of memory increasing led to far more bloat and devaluing clip art generally in the minds eye of the consumer who associated it with its context as part of a larger collection of shoddy and potentially not compatible or well formatted images that came packaged together. (At least I found this context associated degradation that was weirdly the result of progress a worthwhile frame for understanding some of the distaste, and also why the images now may seem fresh and less distasteful - since they have an entirely new context and are far less common in this moment.)
