My camera has 20X memory than the first mainframe I used in my first job. The mainframe fit into a room the size of a large classroom. The memory for my camera is the size of my thumbnail.

I worked for a company that manufactured disk and tape drives. The mainstay was a drive that was the size of a washing machine, that had a removable stack of 12” platters that sat on top, and could hold a total of 40mb of data.
