I sweartagod, it's amazing how our conceptions of storage has changed.  15 
years ago I regularly called a BBS that had a phenominal 36 megabytes of 
storage online, and damned if we could figure out what you'd *do* with all that 
space.  It seemed as close to infinite as made no odds.

(Now, of course, the unbelievably tiny 1.2 gig hard drive in my laptop drives 
me nuts.)
