I remember selling 5 mega pixel cameras at Circuit City when I was 18. It was the hottest thing available at the time. And the paltry memory available cost almost as much as the camera.

I remember when I was gifted a digital camera in 2004 and couldn’t use it for a while because the 512MB SD card cost like $60 and I didn’t want to plop down the cash for it.

I remember buying a 512 kb ram expansion for my Atari for £99. Also remember getting a 16kb ram expansion for a 1k zx81 back in the day for around £50. Yeah I’m old.

I was at a Ritz Camera in the south when digital cameras were relatively new and for a while some locals called them “mega pickles”.
