The hilarity of technological progress

Three years before I was born, a tremendous technological breakthrough became a reality...

The introduction of the ONE gigabyte hard drive.



My goodnesss, with that much hard drive space, you could store like... one whole 2 hour video file. No wonder it was the size of a refrigerator.

Did I mention that it weighed 550 pounds and cost $40,000 dollars?

... It seriously did.
