Hey your guys are just youngsters. I remember my first 40 Megabyte drive. Cost me $500.00. In 1991 I was a project officer on a large database contract. The contractor needed my approval for large purchases. One item he needed my approval for was 10,000 US$ for a one gigabyte hard drive. At that time people were concerned about how we were going to handle terabytes of data.
