Own every card of 1996.
In spring the British government admits a likely link between a cattle disease and a human one. The European football championship is played in England and Germany wins it. In September the Taliban take Kabul. The decade is clearly picking up speed.
The start of their anecdote. The album's other cards are for you to discover in the game.
Sony
Every model of the line carries the prefix DSC, ever since the DSC-F1 of 1996. Sony's line of fixed-lens digital cameras became known for its InfoLithium batteries and Carl Zeiss lenses, and long recorded only on Sony's own memory cards.

Nokia
The hackers of The Matrix carry this 1996 Nokia, a one-piece phone with a cover over its keypad. In the film the cover springs open on its own: the real phone had no spring, and Nokia only added one in the next model, the 7110.

Motorola
Flip it open to talk: in January 1996 this phone became the first clamshell mobile phone, taking over from a Motorola model launched in 1989. Motorola went on to sell around 60 million of them, in several variants.
