Fortunately, by about Win95 most new machines started having CD drives, and it could come on one CD, but, yeah, if you were doing it from floppy...! A 3.5" floppy holds about 1.44 MB but a CD could hold 700 MB. It was such a game changer!

Our first computer was an IBM that came loaded with OS2. After a couple days of trying to use it, we gave up and switched to Windows 3.1. I think that was over a hundred floppies.

CDs really were a huge difference in that era. Plus lets be honest the Microsoft bloat was real with Win95. I was on the beta test team through launch, it was fun to be part of that.

I think I still have my Windows 1.0 disks, I think its 9 5 1/4" floppies which probably don't work anymore.

I did a clean out of a storage bin recently and found a shoebox with 5.25" and 3.5" floppies, including Windows 3.1. Guess I can toss them now.
