It's true that it's the size of a game (I think Deus Ex was about that big?) but in-keeping with the shifting numbers lets take a popular Call of Duty game from last year.

Steam's minimum storage guideline says 70GB(!).

Not say Atom can't be more efficient, but I think this is often our field's "I remember when a cola was 10 cents".

The growth of games is 99% from bigger and better assets though, not bolted on frameworks.
