Yeah, totally. It was. I myself remember my first 10 megabyte hard card. I had stuffed it into some 8086 PC to run a CAD program. Prior to that, anything over a floppy seemed huge!

Funny, I had a flash back to a high school chat. Friend had picked up on digital music. Sampling was a thing we all heard about and the chat was no noise, perfect music one can carry around on chips...

Seemed like sci-fi. We were using Apple 2 computers, some with a half megabyte of RAM. A CD held so much information!

It all just happened. Fairly quick too.
