21 rare MUST SEE historical photographs. (GREAT photos!)

Warning.......I've been told this is "click bait" but I'm posting via cellphone and tablet and although there are ads annoyances, I found the website article useful and interesting but YMMV.

I don't see the clickbait horrors on this computer because I only allow javascript to run on whitelisted sites. Of course that means some sites don't show any content, but I probably didn't want to see it anyways.

I can see the photos at this link without the clickbait.

I like this photo of a 5 megabyte hard drive:



I was working for one of IBM's competitors in the later 'seventies and they were still repairing ten and twenty megabyte hard drives as big as washing machines.

The 32 gigabyte micro-SD card I'm now using as a hard drive is smaller than a dime.

If you have 20 pictures, at least put 5 on each page. Of course, they are getting paid for each click.
