When you consider that the number of atoms in the known universe could be
expressed in terms of googleplex, the need for anything larger is rather
moot, and from the standpoint of our comprehension so close to being
infinite as being indistinguishable.

Y'know, when 10 MB disks came out for PCs, some
people said that there wouldn't be much of a
market for anything bigger.

When I got my first 10MB disk (used. Hard used), I was so sure that
I'd never need anything more that I was elated. Considering the
comparatively complex programs I'd run on my Commodore 64, with hardly
any space, it was obvious. The guy who sold it to me needed a larger
one, I've forgotten what for, but he had big stuff on his. I only
wanted a few games and some tiny utilities. Bah. I reckoned without
programming bloat and feeping creatures.

My new computer, which is at a friend's house being readied for my
use, is going to have a 120 Gig hard drive and I know I'll outgrow it
in less than 5 years. I don't know how I get along now on my 6+ year
old one with only 8 Gigs.
