Bought another USB flash drive the other day, and suddenly it clicked in my head that I purchased a storage device that was $40, reads and write at well over 100mbyte/sec, and holds 128gbytes, in the palm of my hand.
Benchmarked my old and new drive. Technology has come a long way since 1.44mbyte floppy disks.
