back when I started in the biz (right around 1980), we had a corporate party when we reached the 'awe inspiring' magical 1 gig storage.
it consisted of 8 removeable pack hard drives, each the size of a washing machine. this thing was dream tech in 1980.

now, its the size of a toenail

this was 1 gig storage 'way back when' and its current version next to it for comparison


ok, now I feel bloody old.

It should be noted that that giant SD card is quite big for 1GB.
