The technologies sure appear to be marching onward. Things tend to blur on past systems owned by me. First mass storage my first Z80 System at 3.3mhz., had was a dual drive 8 inch floppy disk system. If memory is correct. System had four 4K RAM cards I built from kits. That was back in I believe 1975 or so.
