I wonder how long it will be until we're all using memory cards as the main
HDs in our classic Powerbooks, especially in our SCSI Powerbooks? Mabe someone
could create an adapter that hold a memory card and plugs into a Powerbook
SCSI HD internal cable?
NVRAM vs HD cost, per GB. Cost == $, power usage, and heat dissipation.
Low-power very high-density optical nvram is on its way. Like
traditional nvram, they're not fast enough to be used as main ram,
but they'll be sweet as HD replacements and for external/insertable
memory cards.
Here's an example multi-TB device, that will be shown at CES in January.
