    Remember when BIOSes weren’t able to boot from CD-ROM so you needed a boot disk? Or was that just a windows problem?

      The first computer I ever used was a Macintosh 128k. It didn’t have an OS. The OS was on a floppy that you had to have in to start the system. My dad bought two external floppy drives so that he could run more complex programs on the thing.
