Analyse This

Everyone knows and appreciates the aggressive drop in price of Data Storage per GB per year. Everyone is frankly very thankful for said phenomenon. Does anyone though, stop and visualise this brilliance of Technology? Moreover, has anyone saved these relics from the past to drill home this privilege? This is where I come in. In the picture alongside appear the Dramatis personæ who were preserved just for this moment. Count your blessings. Also, enjoy and reminisce.
Evolution of my storage expenditure can be traced in the following stats.


Year 2003 (India) 1.44 MB Phillips/Iomega/Samsung/Sony/Amkette Floppy Discs (Bottom right)
Price : 15 Rs. per piece or 150 Rs. for a pack of 10 Diskettes. (Equivalent to 20p and £2 respectively.)

Year 2004 (U.K.)
100MB Zip Disc (Bottom left)
Price: £6-£8

Year 2007 (U.K.)
4GB Flash Disc (Top)
Price: £10

Now (U.K.)
The absolute clinchers are my Lacie Porsche 500GB at around £85 and Seagate 1TB at £64!

I think this is a fabulous world we live in.
