From big things, little things grow

Recently at Sevenoaks College I was rummaging through mountains of computers and peripherals looking for goodies for my project. I came across a few Hard Drives including this 1984 baby. It is a Fujitsu of about 10 Mb capacity. I thought of levering it into a laptop.

The regular computer Hard Drive looks like this.

Laptop Hard Drives are about half that size and iPod hard drives are positively mini drives.
I have read somewhere that after some 50 years someone has actually manufactured and marketed a Dick Tracy two way watch. If you don't remember what a Dick Tracy watch is like you are just too young.....Google is your friend.
