My First experience with computer was with an alpha-micro, in 1982, they had a pub at that time saying " we eat apple at breakfast" to show their performance compared to an apple_II of that era...I was working for the dealer of that brand in Lebanon, I remember the boss call us for a briefing to tell us, the police directorat are upgrading their computer to a 40MB hard disk and it is a secret and it is prohibited to reveal it , 40 MB was considered as a huge hard disk, it looks like a automatic washing machine.....
