    my second computer at work had a 20MB hard drive. My first just had two floppy drives - one for the program (drive B) and one for the data (drive A), which is why most computers hard drives start at C (I think)

    Might as well get 4 250gb Hard Drives and shove em in a RAID1 NASbox...

    It will be a lot more efficient and the electric bill will be cheaper too.

    RAID1 = Mirroring heaven! ahhh

    Spectrum wins hands down, it has a Z80a microprocessor running at 2KHz whereas the hard disk has no cpu at all.

    It comes with a midi interface to a Moog synthesizer on which you can make the correct loading sounds, but thats all.

    Tricky

    I'd probably end up in Sheffield assizes on a moydah rap after strangling Motty.

    Still, think of all the thank you notes I'd get.
