Just asking hypothetically. If I were a millionaire and owned every arcade cabinet ever made. How much memory would all of the roms stored in one place take up. Is it really possible that it's in the order of magnitude of a TB as in a terrabyte? as in 1000 gigabytes? |

How much would that take up? Joseph Elwell. |
