It was an era

I remember going down to the local computer store in October of 2001. It was a good time to make an optimistic purchase.

When I hunted this object up in the archives, I found another one too (guitar pick shown for scale)

original 5G iPod photo leaning against silver pitcher — original iPod

photo of the the 10G iPod leaning against a HomePod — 10G successor iPod

Being weak minded, I was influenced by this ad, the original ipod commercial(1:01), when it first came out

Even in the present day, I do listen to this Propellorheads track during meditation… very relaxing!
