I remember looking at a computer catalog back in the late 80s when it cost $500 to buy a 20 MB hard drive. Oh, that didn’t include the controller, so it cost even more money. I remember buying $200 worth of RAM at Best Buy in the mid-90s. It was $50 for a 1 MB SIMM.
Today we can buy 60 inch televisions here in the USA for for hundreds of dollars, which would have costs thousands over ten years ago.
I don’t predict to know the future with prices of the Vision Pro, but I expect cheaper options at some point.
I remember buying a 250 MB Seagate hard drive sometimes when I was in high school in the mid-90s, and I think it cost something like $250, but I’m really not sure.
LOL

Yeah. I remember my friend and I running out to buy hard drives when the price dropped to $1/MB. We never thought they’d get that cheap.
Do you happen to recall about when that happened?

Man, I barely remember what I ate for breakfast…
But it had to be somewhere in the 1988-1992 range. I’m trying to remember if I was still in high school or in college by that point.
hahaha Sorry for the tough question. That time range sounds about right to me when I bought that hard drive I’m thinking about.
