According to my calculations,  that's enough for:

    * About 1½ minutes of uncompressed CD-quality stereo audio;
    * Over a half-hour of uncompressed phone-quality audio;
    * Over 1300 pages of fax-encoded scanned pages with typical compression;
    * Over 3000 standard typewritten pages, blank-padded, uncompressed;
    * 32 photographs at the resolution and quality settings I typically
      use with my wife's digital camera;
    * 500k lines of code, uncompressed.

I have a GNUcash data file with almost three years' worth of data that's 
only 330k, and a "Personal Ancestral File" data-file with information 
about thousands of my dad's ancestors that's only 13 MB.  I could put 
both of them on such a card.
