In the days of those drives, Windows 3.1 didn't take up much space :P Nor where there movies, music or anything else to be placed on the drives... Oh... the days of DOS, and WIN 3.1... simpler times... lol

Reply 14 years ago on Introduction
Not the 650mb ones... :P

Strange, I've only seen 700MB ones, maybe you're talking about the image on the disc?
Reply 14 years ago on Introduction
The original CD-Rs were 650MB (72Min I think), 700MB (80Min) came a little later afterwards... :)
