Geez, what am I supposed to do with all those years of feeling *unofficially* 
old?

What kills me (figuratively, of course) is when I look at the capacity of 
today's 
IBM drives.  A 3390-3 seems like so much when you're talking tracks and 
cyls, but it's really around 2.8 gig.  Hades tintinnabulum, I've got over a 
TERABYTE of disk storage sitting right on my desk for a standard PC.

One question - how many 80 column cards would equal one 305 RAMAC?  
Answers on an 80 column card, please...
