it’s Nostalgia bait. I don’t know why this is suddenly a new trend online. Like the articles recently that for whatever reason are about how great Zip disks were. no…they weren’t. no…you weren’t there.
Next thing you know there’s going to be articles about how great a 28.8 dial modem was or digital cameras that used floppy disks were peak for storage. No Julia, they weren’t.
I had a Zip drive with a 386 and it was really good for backups. 100 MB instead of 1.44 MB! But it was painful to setup and slow as hell. It was only good for serious companies or pirates I guess.
