Lots of interesting discussion, including the potential to run semi-conductor-based technology (we know this today as the SSD).

If that's not cool, they discuss video disks. Remember kids, the laser video disc hit the market before the compact audio CD. Confusingly, they also talk about a non-optical disc. I don't think I even knew about that.

Also, talking about gigabytes in 1983 is pretty awesome.
