Well, my first computer was an Amiga 500, 1 meg RAM, iirc. No hard drive, hard drives were WAY to expesnive, £300 for 120 megs, iirc?
Now, 8 gig RAM, 64 bit, quad core, 2x500gig drives...!! phenomenal change in oh..18 years?
I see they now sell an add on, for Amiga 600s and 1200s, you can plug a USB flash drive into the Amiga, to use as a hard drive.
So, yer old amiga can have an 8 gig flash drive....if only we had that back in the day, GAH!!! ;)
I'd imagine in 10 years, well have 64 Core CPUs, 1 terabyte of RAM, twin holographic drives of...flipping insane sizes lol, 100 petabytes each? the systems will also be more powerful by integration and 3 dimensional linkage across the CPUs and externals, and let us do real time rendering.
