Bill,

When I was in Danbury HS in the AF JROTC we went on a field trip to the
Strategic Air Command HQ.  The computer they were using was the size of the
old high school building (now part of WCSU) and didn't have the computing
power of the laptop I am typing this e-mail on.

Philip,

The first hard drive I sold was $5,000 for 5mb.  I couldn't talk the
client out of it.  It was the size of a shoebox and must have weighed 10
pounds.
