an afternoon thought...
just a thought...isn't it amazing how far things have come in the last couple of years... Adding another HDD has just taken me over the 500gb level on my homepc... MAD! i admit that i keep a few DVD images but the whole software thing is getting out of control... and just simply storing all the fammily pic now occupies 8 Gig :eek2:
long gone are the days on a 10mb program...:freak3: pc currently run P4 3.4 2Gb ram 5 *hdd = 520gb 256 vid card the figures just look mad... not long since a 1gb hdd was like huge! and not 160gb is £50 ha well:Whatever_ dazza |
First pc I used had a 5 megabyte hard disk LOL
|
First pc I used didn't even have a hard disc. Just 5.25" floppy discs :D
|
I took an 850mb HD out of one of the old machines at work the other day :D
|
80286 with twin floppy drive.
That was the one at work. Didn't think I'd ever have one at home! |

Decided it wasn't needed anymore, so I skipped it. Having first securely wiped the data of course... with a 7lb sledgy :D John. |

Top spec Mac had a 20mb HD the size of a small house lol 5.25 360k disc drive on my 1st pc |

Dazza, spare a thought for me :cry: I'm running a 4 year old Apple Powerbook, 400mhz, 320mb, 10gb. Perfect for me at home though. Only thing I haven't been able to do with it is play that online racing game with you & Sticky.
