And it would have too! There weren't many files back then of any real size for the average consumer to have or ever use.
I think it was back around 2000 that engineers said we had reached the limits of hard drive capacity. I think our hp's had 80 gig hard drives and that was HUGE.
And then like a year later I read this scientific report that Israeli scientist had figured out a way to put more data on hard drives and now the sky was the limit. lol
I always figured there must have been a UFO crash right about then and some reverse engineering going on to figure it out. heh-heh
