Note: This is an old post from another blog I had at one time, that I found and copied this from. The laptop in the review is dated and useless but because this was a well received post at the time I’ve decided to repost it for posterity.

Now a group of engineers created a chip the size of a finger nail that is 1 Terabyte. Look who just OWN’D.
