Goodness! A Blu-ray disc with 200GB!
TDK promised a while back they were going to create a 200GB Blu-ray disc. So did they? Why, yes. Yes, they did. A single disc that's about 6.5 times the space on this particular laptop is in existence. It's amazing, it's wonderful, it's a large step forward, it's... completely worthless. Why? There's no drive or player that can read a 200GB disc. Oops. The disc itself is single-sided, but has six layers with 33.33 repeating GB's/layer.
Is this too much, too fast? A few years ago we were pretty amazed with 8GB discs, let alone terabyte PC's. While having a disc with so much memory can have its advantages, you can't ignore the fact there's no way for it to be used until the hardware side of the deal takes form. Is hardware moving too slow, then? Either way, a few years from now, get ready to back up your entire life on a single disc. With holograms and stuff, too.
