My note

Eight megabytes held the Shaolin Monks co-op run, the Vice City properties and files named FINAL, FINAL2 and DONT DELETE.

The card also taught me to wait while data was being written. Everybody knew someone who had switched the console off too early and lost a save. I learnt that lesson years before I called myself an engineer.
