1GB vs 1GB

You can make that thing look even more pathetic by holding a 1gb micro-sd card next to it... I own one hehe =)

@Allnature

[yegosimo]

Actually, there are smaller 1GB Memory Cards..

That thing can kill a man. We've come a long away.

And a woman, and a child, be it son or daughter, or crush a pet, or smash and break things underneath it. The list goes on :doh:

I guess that's heavier than an Xbox

where can i get a hard drive like that???

 

[Darthadam54]

And to think..in the 90s, we had floppy disks, which were about the size of your hand, that held 1.44 MB.

Now, we have drives as big as your finger that can hold anywhere from 256MB to 16GB of data. Amazing, isn't it?

Yes it is indeed....would be nice to see micro SDs, which are roughly about the size of your thumbnail, at 200GB or greater.

 

[Toasty]

And that only cost $9.99.
