Does anyone remember the game Syndicate? When it came out, I didn’t have a CD-ROM drive yet. But I saw there was a floppy version I could install, so I got that.
It was on 19 floppies.
Longest, most painful install ever. Great game though.
Some Microsoft Office installations were 40+ diskettes. Thankfully, this kind of nonsense was quickly replaced by CD-ROMs.
I recall buying a massive box for C++ at a computer show in the 90s, but I can’t recall if it came with dozens of discs and/or whether it came with a massive printed reference book 😂
