United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Baltic Blue

Used Amdahl as well in the 90's, System/390, remember being told proudly at my interview they had 6 terabytes of storage. Wasn't long before the dumb terminals got replaced by Windows. My first PC, can't remember the chip speed, probably a 200 Pentium, It did have 32mb of memory. Seem a bit ridiculous to be typing this on a 3.3ghz 6 core with 16gb of ram and about 12 terabytes of storage, and it's about 7 years old! 
Hung like Einstein, smart as a horse.

I recall being on a course with ICL in the late 70's about their new 2900 series and the phrase "its a 32 bit system which means that you can have 2 Gb of data which is more than anyone will ever need" 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
