Re: Solid State Hard Drives

Ok...first PC was a commodore Pet...it looked like an egyptologist built it with a vision of the SPinx in mind.

We upgraded the ram from a slow 4k to a screaming fast 8k....

AT times it would not "boot" so I would grab one of the "peripheral" parts of the MB that stuck out the side of the PC and bend it upwards to get the PC to boot. I dazzled my friends poking sine waves and watching the neat double helix it made down the screen.....man those PCs back then were practically useless

Re: Solid State Hard Drives

Then I got a commodore 64. I remember typing in machine code from the back of a magazine and using their compiler to turn into a neat video game...anyone remember Impossible Mission?

Re: Solid State Hard Drives

This is fact: What you are about to see is computers without hard drives. Personal computers will be sold without HDs. Your data storage will all be online. You will not purchase programs as we do now. You will purchase access to a program - online.

Google's online word processor and spreadsheet are just the beginning. The super huge data centers going up in Eastern Washington are the tip of the iceberg.

The present free offerings of places like Google to store your documents online is just the tip of the iceberg.

What worries me is the ability for 'Big Brother' to access all your info; to go through your "books" at will; to gather data about you or your company; to block you for being "subversive"; how vulnerable your stuff is to things like an EMP attack; etc.

Mike
PS. NO, this is not a conspiracy theory. It is fact and they are setting the groundwork for it now. How do I know? I know because I live here where the data centers have been recently constructed; because I/you can talk to some of the employees of these companies as they live and shop alongside you.

Real simple: I won't do it. I will NOT store my personal files on a server!

Me neither. I have no qualms about storing ENCRYPTED files on a remote server as backups. But NEVER as "only copies".
