The speed with which storage capacity increases never ceases to amaze me, it's not all that long ago that I thought my 360K floppy drive was hot stuff.

The race is really on between flash and rotating media, it would be nice to see a graph of storage cost per bit for both media and a comparision of access times. I give it another 5 years before rotating media are only going to be used in specialty cases.
