For Instance, what if there were an ancient Greek Microsoft selling "The Surface" in 2000 B.C. What do you think we would have today?

If you look at the development of mankind from the very start to this century what do you have?
We still had problems feeding ourselves... there was no refrigeration. Everything moved by foot or horse. Just at the end did railroads come into existance.
Everything was hand made. Communications took days, weeks, months to get your message to someone.
Okay, now look at what has happened in the past one hundred years, then again at what has happened in the past ten.
Why a hundred years from now it is unimaginable where we will be.
Had the industrial revolution occured much earlier in history, we could be wizzing through the stars, communicating by thought processes, enjoying ice cream in our own homes...
Oh wait a minute.... we already do that last one.
g-day!

The flushing toilet was invented 1000's of years ago. I'm not clear if there was one in every house or it was a "royal throne"
