Those were the days. All human knowledge (1.2 MB) easily fit on a 3.5 inch floppy boi.

Haha, the internet did not fit on a 1.44mb floppy in 1998. Curious to know what was on this‽

1998 was well into the CD-ROM era and the internet was full of .mp3s and .isos by then.

I assumed it was the configuration to set a computer up to connect to the internet.

Trans-Equity is apparently a real estate brokerage in Florida. Maybe a backup of their website?

I’ve heard from a friend that the best place to hide porn is the most boring sounding folder ever…

I always hid mine in a folder in My Documents. I always named the folder something that sounds like you could fuck up the PC if you mess with it. Usually FAT32_j2431z. Then I’d change the folder icon to something computery

If it’s not meant to be funny, it might be a site index.

My Star Trek GeoCities website in 1996 had so many images on it you would have needed a CD-R to back it up.

In 1998, there was so much media (Images, music, shareware, games, even video) on the net it would have taken a server farm to make a copy.
