10MB HDD? That's a classic computer! Do you still have it around? That would be a collector's item. The only "old tech" I could recall ever seeing in use is floppy disk with its legendary 1.44MB capacity.

those were modern, they were called stiffies, we used the old floppies five and a quarter inch. They were dreadful, the dust destroyed them so quickly. I remember trying to load a game with 33 floppies, had to give up as some disks were corrupted with dust. Sadly I don't have them anymore, they took up so much space.
the monitors were monochrome, first green, then a fancy white (which I had), then the amazing 16 colours (VGA?), then the super VGA with 256 colours. I am really old!!
I think there is a benefit to see these tech revolution, imagine using a computer with 10MB HDD to suddenly be alive to see 3TB HDD! That is more interesting than a James Bond movie!
I understand the bulkiness of old computers, it could take up unnecessary space, imagine packing up all these floppies when you could rather sneak in a 1 TB memory card in your jeans small pocket!
