In another life, I used to work for Wang Labs, a company from your neck of the woods that owned the word processor market. I can still remember seeing my first 10MB disk drive for a PC. Prior to that a 10MD was a footlocker sized unit from CDC. Or my first 1MB memory card for the Wang VS system. It was a 24"x24" circuit card filled with rows and rows of chips. <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I still even remember seeing an old memory card for one of their early programable typewriters (an IBM Selectric hooked up to a CPU). It was a maze of thin copper wires that threaded through tiny iron ferrite rings, which I understood to be Dr. Wang's own invention when he was employed by IBM (Hence his seed money to start his own business). Ahhh.. The good ol' days. <img src="images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
