Zbyslaw, An upper grade (not top) digital camera has about 4 Mpixel resolution or so? If you apply Moore's law to camera resolution, the next 3 years will bring about two doublings (2X each 18 months) of resolution improvement. That means a higher level digital camera, $1000-$2000, would give you 16 Mpixel images at 36 bits/pixel = 16x4.5 = 72 MB per picture.

Three more years after that, the 16 Mpixel camera will be $300 and the high end camera's pixels will be quadrupled again - probably a bit finer than the lens can resolve. Moore's law is an amazing theory. I wonder how much longer it will hold true?

BTW, those kids who are blowing time working the computer are being hired directly from high school - I work with one.
