I have never trusted Bill Gates since he made a statement back in the early days saying "640K is all the memory anybody will ever need."
I remember working at a place & the 'new' network that was being installed, the guy told us if you'd never need more than a GIG of hard drive space - that would be insane! ALthough this was back in the late 80's too! My home computer at the time has 256 MB hard drive lol.

ADMIN NOTE: Love the "color" and humor you guys are adding in here as this solution is unfolding. We paid $400 in 1973 for a 125KB floppy drive (yep... Kilobyte... that's 1/1000th of a Megabyte and 1/1,000,000th of a Gigabyte). Our customers could store hundreds of word processing documents on it, and it was removable media. Ah... the good ol' days when storage needs were so small...
