Quote:<p>'One way he [Al Hoagland] tries to illustrate the importance of modern storage systems to school children for whom technology is ubiquitous is to ask them a random question, such as "What's the height of the Hoover Dam?" When the kids all jump on a nearby computer to search for the answer, he then asks them where the information came from...<p>'They just stare. It's a total blank," he said. "That's the frustration when you worked on something to make that possible, but you're not even recognized. Most people just want to see a 3D movie, they don't much want to know what made it possible.'<p>Says a lot about today's society.

The iPad's storage would've been adequate 10 years ago? I'm pretty sure I didn't have a laptop with 32-64GB of storage in 2000 and I did just fine.<p>My current laptop drive is about 100GB (SSD) and it's pretty roomy (considering I store my big media on an external 1TB USB drive).

And this article makes it also perfectly understandable why software in those days would store years as '85' instead of '1985'.

Today's $60 1TB drive would not have been possible in the '50s for <i>any</i> price. Equal storage capacity? Sure. Equal storage density, power usage, throughput speed, seek times? So much beyond simply impossible that it's not even funny.

It also would have encompassed several factory spaces.

it's probably more like $120 in Italy, just to give you the idea...
