Comador PET into TRS 80s 16 256k single drives slaved to 2 dual drives we learned TRS-DOS ,COBOL and FORTRAN . The PET had a cassette tape save/load in BASIC , and the TRS used 5" floppies . Still leading edge in 82-83' and almost obsolete by graduation in 84' , there were computers that had a whole meg in hard drive and had moved to the little dual sided floppies in dual drive and could search a whole meg in each 2 drives .......... Last Tuesday I saw a $200 laptop with a TB hard drive CD read/write Blue Ray/DVD drive and a 2 TB external hard drive for 78 more ........ A SANS disk chip in my phone holds 32 GB .... But we got Apollo 13 back with a slide rule because it was faster to run numbers that way ........

A friend of mine took his terminal leave in March from his job with Washoe county Nv as a programming IT administrator . Started straight out college with an AS in Computer science in 1989 . He says he fully expects there to be less than 1 KB left in the system to prove he was there by Christmas 21' and by 01/01/23 there won't be a page left with his name on it .

I'm still thinking wow 1 TB in a drive smaller than a shoe box .
It's the DVR under the TV that's a satellite received too .
