Abstract

In today's world of microcomputing, there is one given: however much disk storage space you have today, you'll need much, much more tomorrow. Just four years ago Arthur Naiman wrote about microcomputer hard disk storage in Word Processing Buyer's Guide (BYTE/McGraw‐Hill, Peter‐borough, NH: 1983. p.235). He related that “An optional 8.4MB hard disk drive is available for S4500. In fact, you can connect up to three of them, although what you'd need 26 million characters worth of storage for is beyond me.” Today, 20MB of storage is available on an expansion card for under $500 and 20MB is considered to be the minimum acceptable hard disk capacity by most experts.
