1.0 - IBM 305 RAMAC Disk System 1956: The drive holds 5 MB of data at $10,000 a megabyte.
I wonder how much data something that size could store today? I imagine it would be slow as fuck, but it would be great for storing large amounts of information that doesn't need accessed very often.

HD-DVD is the better format. People just have nostalgia goggles for blu-ray.
Funny enough, Microsoft knew it was worse, and wanted to win the war to phase out physical media. Xbox was supposed to be the bringer of digital streaming but it never panned out.

Reminds me of my DPG days with moonshell. God those were good days.

did moonshell not work on M3???

from what i remember the person who created moonshell (moonlight) went to china to work on M3 sakura but she was promised money for her work. M3 being M3 never gave her money and she spent her own money on travel and what not. she ended up being so pissed at the scene, she stopped working on moonshell. and from what i remember she was going to open source it after a point but she was angry at them and just left the scene over night.

:(
