Change

I've lived a long time. It doesn't always feel like it, but it's true. 

I saw an advertisement today for an 18 terabyte drive for $260. 

When I was in my formative computing years (around 1989), I remember buying a 20MB hard drive for my Amiga 500 for $599. 

It may have been $699.

What struck me is that terabytes are cheaper today than megabytes were 22 years ago. 

Sadly, I have not advanced as quickly as storage technology, much to my dismay.
