      Was it windows 98 that was offered on some stupid number of floppies? Getting me all nostalgic now

      Win 95 was I remember upgrade from 3.1 had to use a 5.25" to boot then move to the 3.5 for the data. Not sure about 98. Mine was on CDs by then.

        I am pretty confident that Windows 95 came on floppy. But my copy was CD.

          My 3.11 PC was my first one with a CD drive. But the OS came on floppies.

              I remember the CDs... Heck I think I just threw them out a few months ago. There was a folder on the CD that would allow you to build the Win9x serious boot disks.. I generally was using the 3.5" floppies by then.

                @g.jacobse Anyone remember calling 3.5" floppies "hard disks"? Referred to hard drives as just that.

                    So much nostalgia. I think I'm going to see about making a floppy/hard disk/hard drive combo orchestra soon.

                        Just toned out Labeled and used my fluke to certify all 26 runs. Didn't have to redo a single one. Heck ya.

                          Sad day around here today. It's been 8 years since the Tech shooting and still, feels like yesterday.

                          Did you attend Virginia Tech or is it something that still affects to community?

                            How many drives would you kill by actually filling 69,000 floppy disks?

                                This is like the thread of epic fail. Their developers broke every elementary, textbook "never do this" rule in the database book, then their IT did the same things with their systems design. It's like a "How To Not Work with Computers" manual.

                                        Trying to figure out why my internal firewall is returning ping times of 2-300ms when it should be 0ms... I'm directly connected to it even. Jitter rate is in the 60-100% range too... something isn't right.

                                            Oh now that's just not right. What kind of firewall is it?
