144Kb though Micro$oft had a way of packing a bit more onto them when they
shipped Winders Fer WerkGroops....

HOWEVER.... I can still vaguely recall single side, low density that
couldn't hold what is now a smallish *,gif....

While we're at it... how many can remember when a 44Meg HDD was HUGE!!!
