It was available on floppy. So was Win98.

Yep I had 95 on floppy. It was like 30 disks. That installation was hell, you had to sit there and swap disks for several hours.

When one of these is corrupted then it's all for nothing lol. I mean CD Rom was so ubiquitous here by 95, 98 that this idea seems silly but I guess it existed.

It was more for upgrading 386 computers from 1992-1994 if I remember right. Or maybe we had a 486. I dunno. It was definitely pre Pentium. Back in the dark ages!
