Memory Cards Have Come A Long Way

Posted at 4:02 pm under This and That

It’s amazing to me the number of memory cards that one can collect these days. Not only the number of these tiny little cards, but the storage capacity is also amazing. I remember seeing a unbelievably hard drive several months ago from about 60 years ago that three men were struggling to move. I think the capacity of that monster was 512 MB. And how we carry around these 50 G little cards on our key chains.

Unbelievable!

    As for memory cards, my son told me about one he recently bought for their camera that automatically detects and starts downloading photos from his camera when the camera comes into the vicinity of his computer, no need to remove the card from the camera to put into a card reader – how cool is that!!

    I remember, when I worked at a bank, how the computer hardware took up a whole room!

    True. But I still prefer flash drives than memory cards. :D
