We had hard drives as big as most CRTs these days. And they'd only store a couple of kilobyte. A megabyte seemed like a physical limit to data storage capacity! They didn't even DARE to think about gigabytes back then and now we're already up in TERABYTES!
My laptop is 150 times as powerfull as the gool old mainframe and it's 150th the size! Also 150th the stability, but I don't care!
