you know what's scary?
In 1989, I could fit DOS, Windows, Wordstar, dBase III, and a bunch of other stuff onto the ST225 hard drive (20MB formatted; none of this "DoubleSpace" stuff) and still have room on the hard drive to save files.
Today, you're hard-pressed to be able to fit all of a single fancy-pants web page into 20MB, with all the calling out to third parties it does.
