I bet you were never as happy as a clam like I was when I bought a hard drive for my PC. It was "only" $500 and it had a whooping storage of 500Mb. I think we're talking late 80s or early 90s.

Mid 90's the cost was about a dollar per meg.

Yep. I remember being so happy with that "development".

500Mb! So much space! No way I could ever fill that up...
