I got a new e-mail account purely so I could say that I have a 102 terabyte e-mail account. Now I don't know what to do with it. Here, forward every non-personal message to Foxxinnia@hriders.com. Let's see if we can fill this sucker up.

102 TB? What possible purpose can there be for that much storage for an e-mail account?

When you want to clear up some hardrive space, but save the files, upload them and e-mail them to yourself.

Where the fuck did you get 102 TB's of space?

That is a good question..... Maybe they just say there is that much because they know there is no way in hell you are ever going to fill it up. I have a two gig e-mail account and it has never been more than a quarter full (I am admittedly religious about deleting old messags though)

I went to that site, and couldn't see anything about email...
It seemed to be about motorcycles.

Oh, I missed that page you showed in the edit.

Just a guess, but based on his e-mail's domain name I'm thinking here, although this only seems to offer 1TB... perhaps you get more if you pay?

Generally 95% of the time the @... is the domain host in true.

It doesn't matter 1 terabyte or 100, it's still a still a shit load more than anything else out there.

Sure it does matter. 1 TB is feasible and hell that's a damn fine thing you got there. Looks at 1 GB G-mail and hangs head in shame...

Yo I'm not lying. Man when I was on a 286 and stuff a 1GB hard-drive was unfeasible I mean you just COULDN'T fill that up. Now man, 1GB is like 1/5 of an OS.

As in, I can't register for a G-Mail account because I haven't been 'invited'. Not that I want a G-Mail account or anything -- I get a fairly sizable account with my ISP -- but it almost seems, I don't know, elitist is the only word that pops into my head. But it's not what I'm trying to express...

LMAO! Man, I still have an old Intel 386, ne'er been used. Showing off it's 60-odd megahertz speed rating as though it's something to be proud of :D... Moves pretty fast, when you think about it...

Pah: you kids today with your new fangled 'hard drives' back in the day we had the OS on a 4k ROM and a massive 16k of RAM. As far as long term storage went we dreamed of floppy drives, never mind hard drives, but hey C90s were (relatively) cheap in them days.

Hahahaha! What's the point of keeping it 'experimental' with that many invites roaming around in just one part of the web? Those Google guys are just crazy...

Hehe, remember the trash 80? I think I still have a punchcard reader out in the barn. Now the old punchcards were real programming, and debugging started with making sure you hadn't scrambled the cards, checking to be sure card 197 came after card 196.
