Comment on IBM has found a way to store data on a single atom

Maybe a few decades from now, our children will look at photos of 10MB HDD, 8TB HDD, then 8PiB HDD then have a smile how technology evolve.

As a child (showing my age here) I remember getting a 20MB HDD for our desktop machine (might have been an Olivetti with a 286 CPU, I don't remember). At the time, that seemed an incredible amount of storage - "how will I ever fill that", I thought!
