That's pretty amazing when you think about it. The same ammount of storage my cell phone has would have cost $1,200,000 in 1981. I still remember the first memeory upgrade I made to my first PC (386 for life!). It was a 4 meg upgrade and each 1 meg simm cost 25 bucks. It was totally worth it, Doom ran so smooth!
