As I’ve previously noted, 1981 saw the British release of the ZX81 and BBC Micro, two of the first mainstream home computers and both relatively small compared to business machines of the time.

If you find it too cheesy, try at least to watch up to the one minute mark where you’ll see what is surely the ultimate in removable media.
