quote [ You hand over 80 American Dollars. Yevgeni slides out a little warranty card from inside the ArVid package, writes in the date of purchase and signs it. You step out of that store into the crisp air of a 1995 Moscow day. A proud owner of an ArVid 1030. ]
Interesting concept and a lot of anecdotes on why this thrived under 90s circumstances. There's even a making-of.

Remembering similar systems for the Amiga 500, probably even earlier than Arvid .. the storage size was indeed phenomenal.
