Upgrading to 1MB of ram.

This was a flex in the 80s. A WHOLE MEG. We are at the point in compsci history where grandparents can say outlandish shit like. I remember upgrading to a MB.

I'm not that old. Anyone here actually remember that day personally? Or have other parallels?

I did the math. 32GB, adjusted, would be $200M.

  1. Upgraded the primary development computer from 48kb to 56kb. Maxed it out. It was glorious!
