How about typewriters and computers? In the olden days we had to type letters on paper with carbons if we wanted more than one copy - computers changed all that.
How about the original 2 handed telephone and todays cell phones? Or even the eary mobile phones and today's cell phones.
How about the crank handle car with the electric or alternative fuel cars?
So many, so many.
How about old cash registers and the self check out lanes at walmarty?
Panty hose and garter belts? Not really techie, i guess.
How about Atari or Pong video games and xbox?
Peace!

An essay is a short work of writing that treats a topic from an author's personal point of view. Essays are non-fictional but often subjective; while expository, they can also include narrative. Essays can be learned arguments, literary criticism, political manifestos, observations of daily life, recollections and reflections of the author.
The definition of an essay is vague, overlapping with those of an article and a short story. Almost all modern essays are written in prose, but works in verse have been dubbed essays (Alexander Pope's An Essay on Criticism and An Essay on Man). While today an essay is partly defined by its brevity, voluminous works like John Locke's An Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Thomas Malthus's An Essay on the Principle of Population refer to themselves using the term.

Here's a couple of ideas. Research each on the Internet and describe the differences.
Old technology: Vacuum tubes
New technology: silicone chips
Old technology: dot matrix printers
New technology: laser jet printers

Check your grammar and strive to do your own homework.
Think of an old technology then consider what replaced it.
