Re: stuck in ways

Just as there are those who chose not to drive, watch TV, ETC. There are those who just don't care about the Internet or High speed. I'll bet the number aren't a whole lot different in any of these cases.

Why should we buy processed butter when we can churn it ourselves?

In other news... 20% of people said that they'll never need a hard drive bigger than 40 megabytes. Look, the people who say this crap only say it because they don't have any foresight. 5 years from now, when they can't even get the most basic page to load on their slow connections, they'll upgrade. Not because they want to, but because they have to.

Good point. I can remember people back in the 90's say who proclaimed that they would never need a Gigabyte of memory. I have a 100 Gb on my cheap laptop and am almost full. The internet is getting worse for Dial Up users by the day. Sending digital camera pictures is a nightmare over dial too.

Memory = RAM, you need to remember what you are talking about when you talk about hard drives.
