    This sounds awesome!!!!

    Such a big leap in storage devices would mean that no software can use the available memory for many years. Virtually infinite room for data and programms.

    yeh... I knwo what yuou mean.. I mean a 10000mb hd was infinite really hard to fill, when we get 1 or even 2GB HDDs we'll never run out of space...


    FYI programming gets less efficient, we'll need 100-200TB HDDs with a decade or so, and 1000-100000TB HDDs a decade or so after that just to keep up, remember programming gets less efficient as complexity raises, HL5 will be a marvel and will likely use a good part of a TB.

    also note that in the future, people wont' settle for 2mb/s music, they'll want 32 or64mb/s

    12.5 million GB = 12.5 Petabytes ^_^

    it's funny, cuz PETA bites. or rather, they dont. unless PETA = people eating tasty animals :rofl:
