 From the Computer Geeks email add this morning for hard drives.

Happy Birthday Hard Drive!

In 1956 IBM shipped the first hard drive - it was the size of two 
refrigerators, held a whopping 5MB of data, and cost about $340,000 in 
today's dollars.

Food for lots of thought.  It would take two of these babies to hold a 
single E-1 raw file.  :-)
