I still have a 6 MB drive for a Qantel 950/960 circa '78. Paid less that $200. A 64 GB thumb drive is under $20. That's the equivalent of 10,666 drives and $2,132,000. Not including the 40 year inflation adjustment.

Not to mention the 960 had 48k of memory. 40 for the OS, 4 for T00 and 4 for background.

Gobsmacking!!
