“Nobody will ever need more than 64K!”
Seems to me I've heard something like that before... ;-)
Lets see, are document file formats getting smaller? Nope.
Are cell phone cameras and digital cameras in general getting less color depth, smaller pixel counts? Nope.
Are digital video formats getting smaller, lower definition? Nope.
Have people grown tired of capturing every moment of their lives in tweets, selfies, and videos? Nope.
Given all that, I'm afraid I can't agree with the author. I predict that in a shockingly short amount of time multi-terabyte storage solutions will appear commonplace. Heck, I've got several TB of storage at home right now. Admittedly I am a computer guy but still, I know people with a lot more.
Honestly, I think I could make do with $64,000. (I just don’t know the answer to the question.)
