Re: [LUG] Linux file size

Replicator patterns. If we want to hold information about an atom, or group of atoms, down to the exact state (ignoring heisenberg) of the atom, you'll need a lot of room. I dont know if 144PB would be enough for a simple object, and I dread to think the time to read all that from a HDD (133mbit/second), but I'd guess arround 300,000 years.
