90s games on floppies
90s games on floppies
Doom I and II, Rise of the Triad. Windows 3.1. Anyone else old enough to remember floppy swapping?

These youngsters and their modern floppy witchwork. We real cavemen used tapes. And they were so much cooler than punchcards 😁
Nothing beats "insert disk 3592"after a day of loading only to see disk #3592 sadly had an error. Maybe a slight exaggeration, but...

3.5" floppies were for rich folk. I waited for my games to load from cassette tapes.
-
I used to run DOS 5.2 from a 5.25" on a Tandy 1000. The floppy was infected with the Stoned virus.

The situation was averted shortly thereafter, when Microsoft prevented the blockchain from being recognized as Stoned.
Well, there's a series of words in a seemingly-coherent sentence I never expected to read.

I saw this and all my joints ached. RotT was one of my groups' favorite games.

My first copy of Win95 was on floppy, 13 if memory serves me.
My first computer only had two 5 1/2” floppy drives. Everything required a swap.

My friend’s came on 24 floppies. Maybe you had double density disks or whatever those higher capacity ones were called.
I remember reading this joke press release about how Microsoft was renaming itself to Moft. Their name appears so much in Windows that the shortened name would let them use one less floppy disk and it would save them so much money. After feeding 24 floppies into a new computer one time I completely believed the joke and embarrassed myself by telling other people the big rename was coming.

I wonder if that's what my parents mean when they say they used to be into couples swapping.
Just a couple of floppies. Swapping around. Swinging those floppies. Just a couple of swingers. Swinging and swapping floppies......
.........and then sleeping with each others wives.

I have lots of SW on floppies. Don't use it anymore, but I still have it! Windows down to ver 1.1, OS/2 2.0 and up, dBase III, Turbo Pascal, etc.

Looks like the image has about 90 pixels in it too

Was about to ask if that image came from one of those floppies
