Ken , Jobs and Wozniak need their fair share.
Graphics and file system buffers take up more

I just transferred a DC150 tar tape. Total (uncompressed) file size was
11MB. What was on it? The complete source to Linux 1.0.
Somewhat earlier, the complete source for the RSTS-11 timesharing
system fit on 5 DECtapes, 1.5 MB. And that was assembly language,
exhaustively commented.
Wish I had a copy of that!!

I think the hint is to send 5 BLANK DEC tapes.
