What if software still shipped on 3.5'' disks?
Remember the days when installing a program on your computer required you to use several different floppy disks (usually between 3 and 5) in sequence? Now imagine that CD/DVDs hadn't been invented yet and Internet is still a mirage and you had to install all your programs using these floppy disks that could only store around 1,5 MB. Let's see what that means for current popular programs:
- The "lightweight" browser Firefox - 36 disks
- iTunes - 46 disks
- Adobe Photoshop CS4 - 358 disks
- Sims 3 - 1760 disks
Have some more interesting items to add to this list? Comments are welcome!
