<p>In 1985 had a Zenith PC clone and MS WORD version 1. Loaded it
from the one 5 and a half inch floppy drive, took out the disk
and inserted the floppy to write to. Given I wrote my first
book on a 1918 Underwood, I remain amazed to this day I can
change page 25 of 274 without having anymore to retype all of
them!<br>

And MS Word for the Mac fit on a 400K floppy. The first external
hard drive was 5 Meg which seemed a lot of memory space at the time.
When the first 20 Meg hard drive came out I wondered what anyone
would do with all that memory. Now days a printer driver takes up
more space. I waited until the memory price dropped to just under
$500 show special for a Meg of RAM to max out my 128K Mac to 1 Meg.<br>

Now, if only Google mail didn't put 90+% of the FOT and
Triumph mail traffic in their spam folder, short stopping the
emails before they even get to my computer, life would be so
much better.<br>
