Sorry, but that argument is just not valid. I am storing huge amounts of image data on my PC (basically all the pictures I took since I had access to a digicam. That's what most people do. And that requires storage space.

mtmerrick:
True but how much data does that actually make up? 50 gigs, maybe 75? That's assuming you're an absolute photodog and have a high-megapixel camera.

(this whole argument changes though, if Gareth stockpiles HD movies or lossless audio. Do you, Gareth?)

ackblom12:
Not to mention that it gives you the option if you change your mind about wanting to store stuff on it.

jwhouk:
The statement "X amount of storage is excessive for most people" has a tendency of becoming false as a product of time period Y.

For example, "100 MB of storage is excessive for most people" would have been viewed as accurate when I purchased my first computer, about 15 years ago.

cesium133:
640 kilobytes ought to be enough for anyone.  :roll:
