Wow. 515K of memory? Why would you need so much? Nobody needs more than 64K. Listen, you young pup, in my day my Atari home computer had 16K, and if you were lucky, you might be able to afford a $200 48K memory module from a third party that would void your warrentee. And we liked it that way! (Chaw. Spit!)

Why, back in the day, we had coal fired computers! The "bugs" in the computer were literal bugs: silicon memory hadn't been invented yet, so we just plugged centipedes into those sockets and made them remember things. And we were GRATEFUL! GRATEFUL. I tell you!
