How is that underestimated, a world of 10GB Hardrives when that's much less than the base package of dropbox these days. Managing the terabytes of data required

How is that underestimated, a world of 10GB Hardrives when that's much less than the base package of dropbox these days. Managing the terabytes of data required for the movie back then was a much more difficult task.
- raverbashing 14y agoWhat is underestimated is what one could do with it. Sure, 10GB fits in a usb stick today (or better, fits in a 3 year old one) And managing the amount of data was certainly a challenge. If you see the first Toy Story today you can think of that being rendered in real time by a modern graphic card easily. But still, they had what was available and managed to do all kinds of tricks Now see what they could do in 1984 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYbPzyvResc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYbPzyvResc
- Arelius 14y agoMy comments are specifically about data storage. It was much harder to store terabytes back then.
