It is of course only a question of time.
I used to build computer systems back in the 80 and early nineties. I remember being blown away by a 10 meg (meg, not gig) hard drive. The thing was massive in physical size, as was the computer it belonged to.
A sixteen gig storage unit if it could exits would fill a whole building; Now we call it a jump drive.
