Vintage Hard Disk Ad
Via
Check out that price! I wish I could get an exact date for this Ad, but I could only come within a year or so.
These days, not only would it be tough to find a 10 MB anything (perhaps other than phone sim cards, zip disks, or large floppy disks - remember those regular floppies were 1.44 MB), but you can buy a 2 TB external hard drive for about $150.
Just for clarity: 2 TB = 2,000 GB = 2,000,000 MB.
Finally, you can get 200,000-times the storage capacity for about 4.5 % the price!
Go back in time, and tell that salesperson, "Hey dude, in 2010 I'd be able to buy two hundred thousand of those for $150!"
I won't even go into size.
