Both the fears seem pretty reasonable to me, probably because I usually don't buy a main harddrive with more than 200gb usually no more than 120.

- 10ren 18y agoI started coding on a ZX81 with 16K RAM. In 2 years, that will be 30 years ago. If RAM doubles every 1.5 years, then in 2 years a new machine should have 16G RAM (x1,000,000). At the moment they have about 4GB, so it's not far off.
- ovi256 18y agoYou can already buy MacPro's with 32GB of Ram. For about 8k$ unfortunately.
- 10ren 18y agoYou could also buy 32KB RAM for a ZX81 - but it felt a little out of reach. It was expensive, unusual, non-standard. The thing is, 16GB RAM will soon be ordinary. Every PC will have it. What things become possible that are unthinkable today? Maybe multiple virtualized OSes could become standard.
