Weird.  I did that once and just traveled back in time.

I remember when a friend came home with a 20 mb HDD for his Tandy.  20 INSANE mb!  I was green with envy.

My first HDD was 10MB for a Zenith Z100.  It was $1700 in 1981 dollars.    :old:

The first one I bought was a Seagate 30MB, $300. I had an Amiga 2000 with an IBM Bridgeboard. I was able to access the drive on the Amiga side through the Bridgeboard. Could even boot the Amiga from it.

My first was a 20Mb Hardcard.

One of my favourite demos of the Amiga was it running Workbench, MS-DOS, and classic Mac OS all at once. I'd have them on separate screens and then drag the screens down to show 1/3rd of each all running applications concurrently.

The old days. When you had to read books to learn stuff and then remember it. I probably wouldn't trade having so much knowledge at our fingertips for the past but if the world goes dark I may wish we had.
