two 5.2GB hard drives which were the largest commercially available.
The cost me £245 each.
Times certainly do change. The PC I was building cost me nearly £3000 and I can build something that makes it look like a calculator for around £250.

and I'm confident that in a blind taste test it will still produce better pictures than any compact or modern digital below the dslr range.

I hate cameras where you have to go through menus and press buttons to change apeture and shutter speeds.
