Around 1985 or 1986 I think is when IBM first came out with their 10MB
harddrive and PC-DOS 2.0 to handle it. I think the 20MB harddrives came
out in 1987. 20GB drives were comming out in 1997, and today, you can
get 250GB drives reletively cheap. Bear would probably be in his 40's
or 50's during the timeframe of .hack//SIGN. At least that is my guess.
