>>You meant 20MB. And today's phones outperform the banks' machines of the time.
Yes, you're right. Puts even today's $20 throwaway phone on a pedestal.
FWIW my first ever computer was a TRS80 with 16K native RAM and the mighty expansion interface taking it up to 48K. The remaining 16K was the Basic interpreter. The IBM PC had 640K (not Mb!) and a certain famous fellow asserted that nobody ever would need more than that. ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
