Yep.

I remember the first hard drive I bought for a client.

It was 5 meg. And after working for years with dual floppy systems, we couldn't imagine how we could use up 5 megabites of memory.

It cost $5,000 and change.

It took the entire lower third of a standard sized desk pedestal.

The kids these days have no idea what computing was like just 20 years ago.
