I'm more worried about the phone version
I remember pulling a 10GB SCSI drive out of an old machine once that was the size of four cdrom drives stacked on top of eachother. When it was new it would have cost about $5000 dollars.
I also remember scrapping an old word processor that was the size of a large desk. It didn't have any hard drive storage, and used 160K floppy disks as big as a frisbee. The monitor was an 8" monochrome. It was as heavy as two fridges.
