Perspective here, the average PC Hard Drive these days is 1 Terabyte. That is 16,000 times more storage than those days.
Average RAM these days 8 Gigabytes. 8 gigabytes RAM is 8,388,608 times More ram than The Optional 256 k those days. Processor speed? Dare say Billions of times Faster and Many more Cores than those days, ALL That for a Small Fraction of the cost back then. Considering Inflation, it is Mind Boggling! :eek: One can now buy a NICE PC With all peripherals included for about $600.00 Today's price! That would likely translate to about $100.00 max back then! |
Yep. I learned to program on an IBM 1620 Mark 2, with 4K of memory!! Now if my computer has less than 4G, I'm not satisfied.

I took a DOS class back in the day and threw a disk at out India born instructor. His name was Qubar. I dubbed him Cueball

Besides reviving memories of Mike's serial banning string, it's an interesting reminder.
At one time IMSAI was a world leader in floppy disks, etc. So was Elephant. Were are they now? |
