Software seems to grow to the maximum space it can occupy. I think in 1989
we were complaining about BSD not being able to fit on our VAX 750's boot
drive anymore and we needed to put in a 40MB drive system instead. I expect
by the 2040's we will be looking at petabyte drives and wondering how we
can fit anything on it.
